  • Our take on the KONG Retractable Leash EXPLORE Large

    The KONG EXPLORE is a large-dog retractable leash built around a 24-foot reflective tape that gives a dog far more room to sniff and roam than a standard 16-foot retractable. It has a soft-grip handle and a thumb brake with a lock, so you can stop and hold the tape at a set length. The long tape suits calm dogs on open ground; for strong pullers or tight sidewalks, a shorter tape or a fixed leash gives more control. Owners of retractable leashes generally value the freedom for the dog, and the common complaints are about the tape and the brake rather than the housing.

    Questions and answers

    Is a 24-foot retractable leash safe for a large dog?
    It gives a large dog a lot of room, which is fine on open ground with a calm dog. Near roads, cyclists or other dogs, the long tape is hard to reel in fast, so many trainers prefer a fixed leash there.
    How does it compare with a standard 16-foot retractable?
    It gives about eight more feet of range and adds reflective stitching on the tape. The trade-off is less control and more slack to manage.
    Does it have a brake and lock?
    Yes. A thumb brake stops the tape and a lock holds it at a set length.
    What is the tape made of?
    It is a wide tape with reflective stitching, rather than thin cord, which is easier to see and grip.
    Who is it not suited to?
    Dogs that pull hard, and walks along busy roads or crowded paths, where a shorter leash gives more control.
    Where is the KONG Retractable Leash EXPLORE Large cheapest?
