Bolux 5ft Dog Leash, Heavy Duty Rope Leash with 2 Padded Handle – Pet Training Lead with 3M Reflective Double Handle for Traffic Control Safety, Perfect for Large Medium or Small Dog (Black)

I have a 14 week/9lbs Min Pin puppy that I'm training to walk, not pull which is hooked to a harness. Min Pins are notorious leash puller's. This is an Awesome leash with the lower handle is used get your dog under control and back to the "Heel" position. I love the "D" ring which I use to tie his potty bags. I wish I had this leash when I 1st started training @ 10 weeks old. The price is great considering the High Quality reflective stitching, the comfort handles and the leash is very sturdy, even for those puppies that insist on trying to eat the leash. This is NOT some cheap leash made in China. I've also used this on a 16 week old Boxer who is a strong puller, works like a charm to get him under control. I wish they made the same leash a little thinner (1/2" - 3/4") for small dogs. The 1st time using the leash was night and day. My pulling puppy turned into an obedient gentleman on his walks and the longer handle gives him his controlled "freedom". This is a MUST have for new dog owners.

I have a 35-40lb pit mix, and I am a 5ft tall female. Despite her relatively small/medium size, she is VERY strong when pulling on her leash. When I rescued her as a puppy she quickly displayed separation anxiety and would chew through a leash in seconds if I had to leave her in the car or somewhere for even a few minutes. I got tired of constantly having to replace her leash so I switched to a metal leash which I have been using for the past 3 years. She is now 4 years old and her separation anxiety has improved, and I don’t like the look of the metal leash because of all the breed bias/negative stigmas surrounding the pitbull breeds already, and because she is the best most loving and friendly dog ever. So I decided to try her with a regular leash again, but I wanted something that would help give me more control with her pulling and that would be durable and sturdy and would last. I looked for a long time before deciding to buy this leash. So far, I really really like it. It’s very thick, the reflective stitching is great, I love the built in d-ring for my poop bag holder (it did come with a free poop bag holder with a small roll of poop bags included, but I already had one), and I love the lightly padded handles! I’ve never had a leash with padded handles before but with a strong dog that pulls, it makes a big difference on the hands. I got the 5ft long leash and it is the perfect length for me. Not too long that I can’t grab the second control handle quickly if need be, but long enough that when I take her out to potty she has room to sniff around. I am always most concerned about the strength/durability of the metal clasp on leashes so I will see over time how well it holds up to her pulling when she gets excited. Overall, at this point, I would definitely recommend this leash!!!

I’ve had this leash for a couple years now & it still looks new. It is made really well, it has comfortable hand grips & the shorter leash that is attached is great for controlling my dog in traffic or when other dogs are being walked by. I’d highly recommend this leash! I actually bought a 2nd one for my other dog just recently & it is just as good as the 1st one.

There are a lot of positives to say about this leash and some cons as well. To start, for the price good bang for the buck. For what you pay for its a pretty good leash. The handles feel well secured in place as well as the clasp. Pulling on the handles and clasp reasonably gives a pretty solid construction feel overall and is soft and smooth to the touch. Silky soft quality padding in the handles that feel gentle in your hands. I do love the double padded handles. If you live in the city, you really need to keep your dog close to you at times at the lights so they do not get run over by cars. This leash does just that. Its an oh shoot bar for your dog. The reflective properties are amazing! I have never seen such a fantastic reflective pet product such as this. Thanks to 3M strips I am sold. Now the cons. It has some threads that are unraveling right out of the package. I do not even own a dog yet and worried this could unravel faster than expected Seems to be more at the handle padding than anything super important to the structure of the support of the entire leash. I think some of the threads could be fabric glued to hold it in place so it does not come apart so fast. The 3M strip is actually thin plastic material. Due to some of the stitching its been cracked and I could see a concern of it unraveling in the near future if the threading that supports the strips comes loose. So far it looks pretty stable. The clasp is a nice solid black color, but it was already sticking and I had to fight with it to open. Good news is that with a little silicone spray or WD40 this could be fixed in no time. I used silicone spray and it works like a charm now. No horrid catching, grinding, or stubborn sticking in place due to what I suspect is paint or rough burrs in the spring chamber of the Clasp. Now for my overall opinion. For what this leash is, I still feel is a great quality for the price. Granted its threads are unraveling in some areas for me, so I could of gotten an unlucky item, but based on what I am seeing now, I would expect this to probably last 6 months to a year based on heavy use. Hopefully longer. If I had a concern, I would worry about heavy pulling dogs over 60 pounds. Its reinforced sure, but still I have seen super heavy duty leashes on the market for massive pups that like to pull like carriage horses. Overall, its not bad and I do like it a lot. It looks to be a great walking leash and a excellent puppy training tool. I took some close ups on some trouble spots that could be a problem for me in the future as well as a photo of how nice that reflective strip is. I could see those strips saving a dogs life some night. Hopefully soon I can test this product out and update this review on a real dog.

I’ve purchase this leash many times for my dogs and friends. Quality is good as well as design. Very satisfied with this product.
