Welcome to Leather Leash Store, the online store for Alpha 1. A privately owned small business in Northern Michigan. Steve and Nancy raised and showed AKC German shepherds for over 30 years as Whitside Kennels. Steven and Nancy Whitworth regularly attended dog shows and national specialty shows and have firsthand knowledge of dog showing, handling and training. Always a craftsman, Steve started making his own leather show leashes. With his close attention to detail, the German shepherd handlers fell in love with his leashes and made some of the most sought after handcrafted leather leashes and collars in the world. Steve's wife, Nancy, is carrying on the business after Steve's passing in 2021 finishing and selling the limited remaining inventory. She is adding new items as she can. As each item is unique, all items are listed separately. Remaining assets of the business are available for sale:
