Review on Heavy Duty Dog Leash For Large & Medium Dogs By IOKHEIRA - Adjustable, Multifunctional, Orange by Tonya Austin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The only leash you need. Really.

I am SO glad this came up as a suggestion after spending hours looking at different leashes. I have tried short ones, long ones, retractable ones, and even tried the bungee extensions you can put on the end. And still, my Border Collie would pull like hell and I struggled with loose-leash training. I’m so glad I got this for these reasons:1. Length. 4’ to 6’ adjustable length doesn’t seem like much. But it’s been brilliant for loose-leash training. I started at pretty much the 4’. And it helped me really retain control easily, so I could get her to stop pulling as soon as she tried walking ahead. Over the course of just a couple weeks, we’re at 6’2. Handle. I NEVER expected this handle to be particularly comfortable. But even on a bad leash-pulling day, I could walk her for hours without my hand hurting.3. Bungee. I was skeptical of this because every bungee extension I ever tried didn’t feel like it had much stretch, if any at all. But this one you can actually feel. Makes it easier on your arm with a pulling dog. And the short gradual resistance helps with the training because she starts to feel the resistance and it builds up quickly, rather than going from loose to choking her. Basically, it helped her learn the distance control.4. Seat belt. I’m one of those over-protective dog owners. And I have tried other solutions to help keep a dog safe in the back. But they were always too tedious to use. With this, I just buckle her in with her harness as easy as it sounds. And the best part is it’s always with you. No contraptions you need to keep in the car. And she can hop in any car and go.5. The hook. It attaches well and does feel sturdy, not cheap. My only tiny gripe is that it’s at an odd angle, so getting the leash off requires an odd motion, compared to traditional ones. However, this odd kind of looping motion is small, and you get the hang of it quickly.Finally, the ring for doggie bags is the perfect touch. Ultimately, I was originally planning on using my top 3 leashes depending on the situation. But this is the only one I use. And I’m planning on buying one as a gift for a couple people.

Pros
  • It comes with a secure locking mechanism that ensures your dog stays safe at all times
Cons
  • The leash may not be suitable for dogs with sensitive skin
