A pet leash comprised of a rope made of nylon, or any other suitable material. The rope is comprised on one end with a handle and on an opposing end with an o-ring. Between the handle and o-ring, a foam piece is provided which provides a cushion against the rope of the leash and the pet or animal. Between the handle and foam piece a sliding hook is located which allows the leash to connect to a pets traditional collar, when the leash is worn by the animal. The hook slides on the rope of the leash and is easily moved along the rope to fit a variety of animals of varying shapes and sizes. When the pet or animal pulls on the leash, the sliding hook allows the leash rope to retract around the belly and also pulls the head back humanely stopping the animal.
