How Long Should a Dog Leash Be: Choosing the Right Accessory for Your Pet
Length is the first thing you should pay attention to when choosing a dog leash.
All of them are basically divided into three groups: short, the length of which is up to 1.2-1.5 m, medium - 3-5 m long, and long, for which this parameter exceeds 5 m.
Short leashes are needed to take your dog to the veterinary clinic, to the walking area, to the car, etc.
It is not recommended to use such “accessories” in everyday life.
For walking dogs, longer leashes are used, the length of which ranges from 3 to 5 m.
This type of leash allows the dog to run, go to the toilet away from the path, and just stretch its legs after being in the apartment for a long time.
Particularly convenient (for owners, first of all) are the so-called roulettes - they are wound and unwound by pressing a button, thereby relieving pet owners of inconvenience.
But long leashes or retractable leashes, the sizes of which reach 10 or even 15 m, will be useful for those involved in canine sports.
