What leash is best for a walk with a dog weighing over 25 kg?
The choice of leash depends on the preferences of the dog's owner and his walking style, however, for a dog weighing 25 kg or more, it is recommended to use a leash with a length of, among others, 2 measurement and width 2,5 cm. The best choice will be a leash made of a strong, but at the same time soft material, such as polyester webbing or rubber band. There should be a leash solid and comfortableto keep your dog safe.
We choose a leash depending on the nature of the activity – a brisk walk, training or a walk in the forest – each type will work in different conditions. It should be remembered that the longer the leash, the less small jerks, at the same time, the greater the jerk force due to the run-up.
As for the type of leash, the most commonly used models are: city lanyard, fastened i lanyard with non-slip.
City lanyard it is simple and reliable, usually quite short, it will work well when the walk takes place in typical urban conditions and we need to have the dog almost at arm's length.
Non-slip leash provides a firm grip during sudden jerks of the dog, which is especially useful when the dog is large and tends to pull. It will be perfect as a long training line, it will give us and the dog a lot of freedom. The alternative will be rope leash - very durable because is made of climbing rope, which has all necessary approvals for ropes used in extreme sports.
Reversible leash allows us to adjust the length through appropriately located overvoltages. Thanks to this, it can be quite a universal solution when we need a longer leash, but occasionally shorter.
It is also important that the leash and its components, such as carabiner and thread were enough strong and solidto withstand the strength of a large dog. For dogs that tend to pull on walks, you may want to consider this as well training braceswhich will facilitate learning to walk on a loose leash.
For our comfort worth considering soft undercoat city leash or mobile neoprene lining dedicated to other types.
