    Favorite Leash

    Was looking for a locking leash that would be small enough and light enough to attach to a head harness rather than a collar. Bought 2 of these from a local retailer as I was surprised by just how lightweight they are, it feels like you aren't even holding a leash. Only drawback is there is no swivel so if dogs are wondering the leash will get a little twisted, but it is easy enough to untwist in your hand, and since our use case is for structed walks it hasn't been a problem. Would love a longer version for sniffing walks!

    My favorite leash

    Absolutely my favorite leash. The diameter of the rope is perfect for my hand, and it's easy to knot (and untie later) during our adventures down to the local dog-friendly brewery.

    Great for everything!

    I have multiple of these leashes because they are so great. I use them in the car to keep my dog clipped in so he doesn't get hurt in case of an accident & I use another one for everyday use. The handle is super comfortable and the leash is made from dynamic rope so there is a little stretch for those times my dog does decide to give the leash a yank. It also works very well with the knot-a-hitch system because it doesn't have any plastic buckles that on the handle.

    As a dog trainer I love this leash

    I see negative reviews that all are due to dogs chewing through the rope... that has nothing to do with the durability of this leash and is a training problem. redirect your dog, don't leave them unattended while wearing a leash and if you need help hire a local trainer to help. This leash has held up to many types of dogs for me with zero issues and I recommend it to a lot of my clients.
