When choosing from the vast array of dog leashes on the market today, you will most likely choose the one that matches the dog collar you have picked, which is probably a good strategy in most cases.
Be aware however that the dainty little collar that you thought might suit your dog will probably have a dainty little leash to go with it and that dainty leash may not hold your dog if it sees a cat on its daily walk.
Dog leashes
Dog leashes are not only for adult dogs. You can purchase leads specifically for puppies. Your puppy should be introduced to a leash as soon as possible. When attaching a leash to a puppy for the first time, allow the pup to drag it around for a little while. Ensure that you supervise your puppy as the leash could easily tangle. Grab the leash and walk a few yards calling your pup along. Do a little of this each day extending the distance as you go.
Dog leashes are not only suitable for walking your dog – they can also assist with training. Gentle Leaders or Haltis are a type of dog leash that can be a godsend for anyone with a dog that races ahead when walking. The Gentle Leader allows you to easily pull back on the leash bringing your dog back to a healing position. If used correctly, it is a gentle training method both for you and your dog.
Hands free dog leashes are a great option for joggers or anyone who needs to keep their hands free. Essentially it is a leash that comes with a belt that attaches around your waist. This is also great for hands free training of your pet.
