We favored models that can accommodate many breeds with the necessary features for controlling a pup’s movements on the street. A retractable dog leash should have a brake to stop your dog from extending the leash any farther and a locking mechanism to lock the leash at a particular length (even when you take your thumb off the brake). The Ultimate Kong leash—made by the trusted manufacturer of some of our favorite dog toys—may be rugged and sturdy, but the ergonomic and soft grip handle with added grip support keeps it easy and breezy for the pet owner to maintain total control of their large dog. Most good brands will have tangle-free designs to ensure you’re not spending precious walking time untangling a lead.

We chose models popular because you can release your dog’s distance up to 26 feet in some cases (the most common length is about 16 feet). Like all KONG products, you can depend on these retractable leads for durability and strength walk after walk. Some retractable dog leashes have seemingly impressive lifetime guarantees, but we wouldn't let this sway you. As a rule, it's best to avoid using a retractable leash with a particularly excitable dog that might get injured by running full tilt and jerking its neck at the end of the lead or injure others by tangling them up in the leash. A 16-foot, tangle-free, 360-degree movement tape leash with their signature Quick Lock and Brake System ensures your dog follows your lead.

To say I’m surprised is itself a surprise, the lead is very robust, and does exactly what it says in the tin, I tested it when he decided to chase a bird, and when I hit brake it held out, it was me that got dragged a little, but the brake/lock held out, since tested it like this a couple of time and I’m confident in the lead now. The brake and lock mechanism is super easy to use and works with your dog's natural walking tendencies.As above, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging.

It also comes color-coordinated with reflective stitching for added safety, which you’ll need with those heavy pullers in low-light conditions. This will keep you more comfortable while holding your pooch, especially on very long walks, and you’ll be less likely to lose your grip. We'd recommend a tape leash over a cord because cord leashes aren't as strong and are also more likely to cause injury if someone gets wrapped up in the leash or you accidentally grab it instead of using the brake mechanism. There are a few types of retractable dog leashes: nylon, tape, and chew-proof designs with steel wiring. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it.Kong's Ultimate extendable dog lead is super strong, designed especially for extra large dogs up to 70kg or very strong dogs. Why it made the cut: Flexi has been making a version of this leash for 50 years, which speaks to its success. The KONG retractable dog leash series has different models for different types of dogs and walking environments. Plus, most leashes recommend you don’t let the dog hit the end of its range because that puts excess stress on the mechanism. A retractable dog leash is useful for late-night walks when you can't safely let your dog off leash due to the potential for unseen hazards.
