ABSTRACT:
An elastic dog leash and coupler utilizes brightly colored florescent latex tubing for a major portion of the leash and coupler. The tubing is mounted between rings. A monofilament nylon line is mounted within the tubing and connected to the rings. The monofilament line has a length significantly greater than the unstretched length of the tubing, and limits the degree to which the tubing may be stretched. With respect to the leash, a nonstretchable webbing handle is attached at one end and a stop section of the leash is attached at the other end. The coupler is comprised of a plurality of sections of tubing mounted to a ring, which may be attached to the end of the leash. The other ends of the tubing of the coupler are provided with nonstretchable webbing material which may be utilized as a stop section for the coupler leash. The webbing material may be provided with a reflective stripe for additional safety at night.
