- Is this leash suitable for a strong dog?
- It is rated for medium dogs, roughly up to 55 lb. A hard puller can hit the end of the tape with a jolt, so a fixed lead is a better fit for strong dogs.
- How is tape different from a cord retractable?
- Tape is flat and wider, so it is less likely to cut into hands or legs when it brushes past. Cord is thinner and can be harder to see.
- Can I lock the leash at a set length?
- Yes. The thumb button locks the tape so the dog stays at a fixed distance, and pressing it brakes the spool.
- Does it work for small dogs?
- It will work, but the medium size and 16 ft tape are built for medium dogs. Small dogs are better served by a lighter small-size model.
- What should I check for wear?
- Look at the tape near the housing for fraying or nicks, and test the brake and lock regularly. Replace the leash if the tape is damaged.
