Leash for dog

Among the accessories we must acquire when a furry one comes into our lives, the dog leash is a must-have. In many areas, dog leashes are required by law, ensuring that dogs are restrained in public areas to keep them and other passersby safe. In addition, the leash is a very useful tool to keep your companion safe and controlled during walks and outdoor activities. It allows you to have more control over your dog and prevent him from pulling or straying too far away, as well as helping to guide him in the direction you want him to go. 

What is the best dog leash?

If you are looking for a new accessory, you may be wondering what is the best dog leash. When it comes to buying a dog leash, there are several factors to consider in order to choose the best option for your pet.

  • Dog size. If your dog is large and strong, you will need a stronger and more durable leash than if your dog is small and calm.
  • Type of activity. The leash you choose will depend on the type of walk you take with your pet. If you plan to walk or run with your dog, you will need an extendable leash that is suitable for that particular activity and allows you to keep the animal safe and controlled.
  • Material. This accessory is usually made of different materials such as leather, nylon or cotton. Each material has its own characteristics and advantages, so you should choose the one that best suits your needs and preferences. Make sure that the leash material does not cause irritation to your dog's skin. Candypet leashes are made of cotton, which is soft and comfortable so as not to irritate your dog's skin, especially if it is sensitive. In addition, cotton is a resistant material, suitable for cleaning in the washing machine, which will make your leash durable and you will not have to renew it often.
  • Length. The length will depend on the type of activity you do with your dog. If you are in an enclosed space, such as a park or busy street, you will need a short leash to keep your dog close. If you are in an open space, such as a field, a longer leash may be useful to allow your pet to explore and have fun.
  • Comfort. You should choose a leash that is comfortable for both you and your dog, with a suitable material so as not to cause discomfort, and an ergonomic and practical handle for holding it for long periods of time.
  • Safety. Make sure it has a strong and safe carabiner to attach to your dog's collar. In addition, it is important that accessories such as disposable bags can be attached to the collar. 

You should not only pay attention to the leash. The harness is of vital importance for the leash to fulfill its function and provide your pet with a comfortable and safe walking experience. The adjustable chest and neck harness is the best option to combine with a dog leash. At candyPet® you can find harness and leash packso that your dog looks a set with a unique design and an unbeatable quality.
