Our History

From humble beginnings to becoming a leading provider of innovative dog products, the Leash Boss journey has been an adventure. For Leash Boss’ founder, designing unique solutions for dog owners has always been a passion project.

2013 - Embarking the Journey

Journey began in 2013 when we started developing the concept that would eventually become the Leash Boss Original. As pet parents to a rescue Lab Mix named Wyatt, we faced unique challenges. Weighing over 100 pounds, Wyatt had a zest for life. Strong and energetic, he loved to follow his nose and pulled hard on his leash to get wherever he was going. After moving to sunny California, the couple wanted to enjoy long daily walks and embrace the California lifestyle. Unfortunately, they found themselves hurting their hands trying to maintain control with a traditional leash.

Unimpressed with other options on the market, they knew there had to be a better way – and Leash Boss was born. The objective was to solve the problems associated with strong, pulling dogs. The first design was sketched on the back of an envelope. Wanting to make it a reality, and built the first Leash Boss prototype out of hardware and rope.

 

2014 - Onwards and Upwards

Others began remarking on the new leash and asked where they could get their own. We decided to sell their leashes online. We submitted a patent for their design and set up a small e-commerce website. 

 

2015 - California Dreaming

Quickly building a reputation for quality, Leash Boss expanded operations. As sales increased, Leash Boss began working with a local California manufacturer to produce high-quality nylon leash designs. Several Leash Boss leashes are still manufactured in the same Southern California facility today. With more time to devote to innovation, product lines began to expand. Due to leash laws in San Diego, it became clear that there weren’t many options for dog owners who wanted to give their dogs room to roam. Seeking a longer leash for a dog to run and play, work began on a solution. Long leashes available on the market were made of cotton and prone to breaking. Leash Boss introduced a better alternative: a 50-foot leash made of strong nylon webbing designed to withstand pulling and chewing.
