[RC] re: sponge leash - Michelle AquilinoI like this pantyhose idea (I just have to go out and find some purple or wine colored pantyhose and I'm all set AND don't ruin my color scheme, ha ha).? I was drug for a good 5-10 feet from a tangled dog leash wrapped around my leg before it broke (not my horse), so breakability is my top concern, JUST in case.? Plus, it's cheap enough that I can try it out, and even if it doesn't work or I don't like it, I'm not out too much =)? Thanks Nancy!-- "Don't breed or buy while shelter animals die" ______________________

Subject: Re: [RC] Sponge Leash This may sound weird but it has worked for me for years. I use an old pair of pantyhose. Cut the legs off and tie them together, tie one end to the sponge , add in a small clip and a clip on the other end to clip to saddle. The sponge end w/clip clips to the breast collar. What you end up with is about is about 3 feet of pantyhose (that doesn't loop down very far) that will stretch to 6' or more and? snap back readily into your hand (provided you have the technique down). If it gets caught on anything on the trail it will break way much easier than nylon rope or Biothane. Cheap too! Happy trails, Nancy Sluys
