Abstract: A pet stake for insertion vertically into the ground with the upper end of the stake having a leash connected thereto to enable a pet, such as a dog, to move in an unrestricted manner within the length parameters of the leash and then be subjected to a gentle but increasing resilient resistance to movement away from the stake due to the resilient characteristics of the stake. The stake includes a base with a corkscrew and handle by which the base can be screwed into the ground surface with the handle serving to stabilize the base and a flexible fiberglass resilient reinforced rod connected with the base. The upper end of the rod includes a spring and swivel eyelet to enable resisted movement of the dog or pet in any direction.
