This type of leash is perfect for training purposes, as it allows dogs to move closer to their owners. Plus, it is easier to manage and control the dog with this length of the leash.
2. Strength of the leash: The strength of the leash is important as it determines the safety of the dog.

Look for a leash that is made of high-quality materials and is strong enough to hold the dog’s weight.
The leash should also have a solid clip that ensures the dog doesn’t get away. The clip should be strong enough to sustain the dog’s weight.
