Why you need a Long Lead for your dog
Once your dog is lead-trained and behaving well, the next goal is to ensure it responds to off-lead commands. A key stepping stone between these stages is the use of a long lead, which helps build confidence while maintaining control during recall training. A good long lead offers the dog a sense of freedom while still providing you with a secure connection.
 
Doctor Dog Long Lead Benefits
Most long leads are made from nylon, which offers poor grip when wet and can cause burns if the dog pulls suddenly. Additionally, the connectors are often made from lightweight alloy, which can bend and become disconnected.
Doctor Dog leads are handmade from super-strong, 12mm thick woven cotton cord, carefully selected to provide excellent grip without being too heavy for the dog.
Cotton does not become slippery when wet and won’t burn your hands, no matter how fast or hard your dog runs.
All fastenings are crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring durability and safety, unlike plastic or cheap alloys.
If the cotton starts looking worn after a few months, simply remove the stainless steel carabiner and pop the lead into the washing machine for a refresh.
