The standard leash is the most popular choice. It is generally made of nylon or leather and measures between 1 and 2 meters in length. This type of leash is suitable for most walking and training situations and provides good control over your dog. The downside is that it may be too short to allow dogs to have mobility, explore, and meet other dogs without stress.
The loin
The lanyard is a longer leash, generally between 3 and 15 meters in length. It is ideal for dogs that need more space to sniff and explore their environment but also to meet other dogs safely and peacefully. It allows the dog to explore while remaining attached and is therefore ideal for rappelling training.
The adjustable leash
The adjustable leash is a versatile option that allows you to change the length of the leash as needed. It usually has several rings and carabiners to adjust the length and can also be worn over the shoulder for hands-free walks. It can be heavier and more cumbersome than other leashes.
The retractable leash
The retractable leash is a controversial choice among dog owners. It consists of a plastic case with a roll-up mechanism that allows you to adjust the length of the leash. While some appreciate the freedom it offers their dog, others consider the retractable leash to present safety risks and insufficient control.
It can especially cause accidents and injuries due to the rolling mechanism.
