Mendota Pet Slip Leash - Dog Lead and Collar Combo - Made in The USA - for Large Breeds - Black, 1/2 in x 6 ft

I love this lead! I have three dogs, a 65lb husky, a 75lb pit bull and a 40lb pitsky and although I was skeptical at first that it would help give more control during walks, it worked well on my husky and pitsky and does discourage them from pulling hard which makes walking them easier. Before this I was using a regular leash, and my husky would sometimes somehow manage to get unhooked from his leash during walks so this lead took away a lot of worries for me since you loop it around their head. However, if you are looking for a replacement lead for a very strong puller, this might not be best. My pit still powers through and pulls like mad with this lead, and it’s because she has such loose skin around her neck that it won’t sit where it’s supposed to to discourage the pulling. The lead is supposed to rest behind the pup’s ears and above their throat so it doesn’t choke them, and this helps you maneuver them. The quality is good - the lead itself is made of thick rope. I’ve took them on numerous walks and no signs of fraying yet. Had this for about a month now. I would recommend this lead.

These slip leads are pretty amazing. I've always used "pinch collars" on my more stubborn dogs, but this works just as well if not better and it doesn't look so mean (like you're an abusive dog parent) around their necks. I know the pinch collars don't hurt the dog, but other people don't always understand that and I've gotten a lot of dirty looks in my day. I digress. Where was I? Oh yah, the slip lead. Keep it up nice and snug right behind the ears. Start out slow just letting them get used to it and know exactly what you want from them. I always start out in the driveway walking around slowly, only putting a slight amount of pressure to pull them in one direction. Once you get them used to the feel of the pressure, then you can take them on a walk. If they start pulling again, just continue to change directions giving them gentle pulls and praising them when they turn the right way. You might look stupid walking around in slow little circles with your dog, but who cares. It works if you just let the dog know what you want. I've cured 110 pound dogs of pulling me down the street with one of these leads.

Great leash- strong and easy to slip on/off your dog. I have a 70lb hunting dog and this helps keep him close when his prey drive is activated.

I have four dogs and am always training them or taking them to a training class. This lead is so handy to quickly put on and take one of them to class or anyplace outside my home. It is very thick, so it does not slip from the top of their necks very easily and it does not hurt the neck of my smallest dog, a Shihtzu - Maltese mix weighing 12#. It is equally as good for my largest rescue dog, a Dutch Shepherd mix, who came to me untrained. I first observed him wearing a Gentle Leader which did not control him at all, and he was lunging and biting at every passing dog at the pet store. With slip-lead training, I can put this on him and take him anywhere under control. It is also handy to keep at your front door for the unexpected visitor and a barking, or jumping dog. Don't throw away whatever regular collar and leash you have for your dogs, but add this as a useful addition which will save you time and frustration.

Very good quality, but unlike a collar for your dog, this depending on how you put it on the dog you will notice it takes some getting used to it for the human. Meaning it slides free on her neck in only one direction under tension. In the opposing direction it grips and I have come close to pinching her skin. Now that last statement makes me wonder if you reading this will freak out, but dont it is designed to be that way, but as the human walking your pet, you will understand when you get it that there is a difference to a freely spinning dog collar and leash. But what you need to know and the most important part of purchasing this LEAD is, your pet will not slip out of this. That is why I got it and it works great.

Works very well and well-made.

I have been using these type of leads for larger breed dogs. This is the first I purchased for a smaller dog. Using the longer, larger width leash on dogs like Huskies and Labs, is good. Dogs are stronger, and you have more dog to wrap making your leash stretch farther. This specific leash I just purchased is being used on a Welsh and mini Schnauzer- not as strong, smaller dog, much less body to wrap. The leash isn't flimsy, just not as stiff; the material is a little softer, good for our little ones; and the thickness is just a little less than bigger ones so it fits the small dog bodies nicely. The 5' is a perfect length, gives you some walking room but not too far. (Save the 6' for big dogs. They need the extra length to wrap their bodies.) *I didn't go to the very small width. After using these with the kennel and personal dogs, "my personal opinion", I would suggest that for your smaller dogs like Yorkies, etc.

This is my favorite leash I've ever purchased. I'm a small woman with a large german shepherd dog. I have found this leash gives me more confidence with training and walking him than anything I have ever used. He's very responsive to it. It's extremely comfortable in my hands, and it's easy to get a good grip. I'm very glad I ordered it.

Great quality

Son correas de entrenamiento, se deben ajustar detrás de las orejas para no ahorcar. Mi perra que es muy inquieta responde muy bien. Para el uso diario es muy práctica ya que al ser quita-pon es muy fácil ponerla, ajustarla o amarrarla a un protector etc. La calidad es un nylon que se siente muy resistente y suave al mismo tiempo, aguanta bien la intemperie (lluvia, lodo, sol) y con una lavada queda presentable de nuevo.

Recommended for all dog owners. This is definitely a leash you'd want to have. It especially helps with dogs who always try to take lead. It's a good training leash to have. I love the quality and feel it gives me as the owner and my dog seems to prefer this rather to his body harness.

My dog is a German shepherd and for the first year I really struggled to get her walking nicely. And overtime she started to bark and lunge at other dogs. Of all the tools and methods I've tried, the slip lead has worked the best. I now get my dog from barking and lunging to sitting and waiting for the other dog to approach. I highly recommend one of these leashes and a good instructional video if your having leash problems.

This lead was exactly what we were looking for. He tended to pull quite a lot on extendable lead, this has totally cured when on figure of 8. Great material and length great. Our dog is a Welsh Springer spaniel around 23kg so got thicker size.
