Abstract: A leash has an elongated line, a first grip handle made of resilient material and connected to one end of the line and a second grip made of resilient material and frictionally engaged around the line at any intermediate location along the line. The frictional engagement between the second grip and the line is sufficient to preclude involuntarily sliding or movement of the grip along the leash line when an animal is being restrained or controlled. However, the user's voluntary exertion of force can be used to overcome the frictional engagement so that the second grip can be slid along the line for adjustment. The leash has a durable construction and displays a variety of colors, patterns, prints or designs.
