CHOOSING A DOG LEASH: WHAT TYPE AND WHY?

For everyday use, such as walking or exercising, almost any leash is suitable. Leash models come in a wide range of lengths, widths and styles. You will find a leash that is suitable for every breed and temperament, as well as the multitude of applications we find in everyday life and in training.

WHY DO WE NEED A DOG LEASH? WHAT IS IT FOR?

Quite simply, in many places, the law requires owners to keep their dogs on a leash when they are in public. This is done for safety reasons! A dog running loose can cause an accident, and in the event of an attack, it helps control our dogs.

Other benefits of using a dog leash include:

Provides a safe and easy way to handle and communicate with our dogs during training.

Prevent your puppy from chasing or lunging, which could scare other animals or people.

Prevents your dog from wandering into inappropriate places.

Prevent your dog from running into the road and possibly injuring himself and others if he were to cause an accident.

Allows you to temporarily tether your dog to keep him safe if you can't give him your attention for a few minutes.

A leash is an essential tool to use during the first few days of a puppy's life to keep them safe and help you train them. It also provides a useful tool for control and communication throughout their lives.
