This Beta Cable Lead is 5 ft. long. The material cleans up easily with a damp cloth or sponge. It has a floating ring on the beta material to create a slip lead, choke lead, or tree lead. The swivel snap on the handle allows you to secure your dog to a tree or other stationary item. Welded hardware. Made in the USA. When not using the lead, the ring in main body allows you to wear it over your shoulder "bandolier style," not rolled in your pocket.
