Customers online appreciate the length of the lead, as it measures up to 152cm long, it provides the perfect balance between your control and your dog's freedom. While it is a heavy-duty, good-quality lead, some customers found that it still came susceptible to chew damage in the end, so maybe not be a good option for those hounds that are strong chewers.

As the design is very simple, customers say this makes it very easy to put on and take off. We recommend it for small dogs that pull as it doesn't have the shock-absorbent qualities to handle larger dogs. Something to note is that it might not be suitable for some older dogs as because of where it sits, it could apply pressure on their back and trachea when they pull.

Customers also appreciate that it doubles as a seat belt as it comes with an attachment so you can go from being safe on walks to safe on car journeys without needing to change any leads or restraints. The lead is equipped with a safety lock to give you peace of mind but one or two reviewers have had experience with the mechanism failing so make sure to double-check it's secure before setting off.
