Made right here in Calgary, AB, Canada 🇨🇦
The Squamish Eco-friendly RMD Leashes are handmade by a tiny team of local animal lovers in Calgary, AB! Each leash is made from retired climbing rope that is cut, tied and stitched for your dog's adventures.
These rope leashes are durable and lightweight with a locking carabiner to give you the ultimate confidence on the trail or a walk around the neighbourhood. Adjustable to hands free with a second carabiner, by tying a knot in the leash.
Available in various colours in 5' or 8' length leashes. ** Please check your cart not all colour ways are available in both lengths**
We machine wash all the climbing rope that we make leashes out of. Overall, the rope on each leash is in great condition.
Buy an eco-friendly rope leash and plant a tree!
For every eco-friendly rope leash we sell, we will plant a tree in British Columbia or Alberta on your behalf partnering with ONETREEPLANTED. We will keep a tally of how many rope leashes we've sold and trees planted on this webpage.

Does it get any better than that? You are avoiding climbing rope going to a landfill and planting a tree!
Benefits of buying an eco-friendly rope leash
- Buying local (made in Canada) means more money for Canadian businesses
- Avoiding landfills means you are keeping our backyard clean
- Upcycling climbing rope saves on carbon emissions by not shipping new rope across the country or globe
- Plant a tree when you buy the eco-friendly rope leash
The carabiner makes it easy to clip your pup anywhere - hiking, backcountry skiing, organizing your mountain bike by your truck or going to a dog-friendly patio.
RMD eco rope leashes are made from recycled material and assembled in Canada.
Do you have climbing rope to sell?
We pay up to $.50 per 1m of clean, gently used rope or you can donate it to us. Please email us a photograph of your rope and we'll make you an offer! Email info@rockymountaindog.ca or call us at 403-540-2746 with any questions.
Where do we get the rope from?
There are two main sources of supply of our rope leashes:
- Local climbing facilities in Alberta - we pay or receive donations from climbing gyms in Calgary and surrounding cities
- People like you - we've posted in local climbing groups on Facebook for rope.
Because these leashes do not have a swivel function, we do not recommend using a metal choke chain training slip collar with these rope leashes. All other collars are fine.
