A leather lead 1m to 1.2m is what you need.
Totally agree! 100% !!
My grandparents bred winning showdogs they asked me to take one of the pups they were keeping to obedience school when i was young which is important not only for the dog it also helps owners understand how obedience is taught.
Choker chains are used for training dogs on a lead which then allows small people even children to walk big strong dogs with safety.
The dog will learn how to behave then you can use any lead to walk them once they're trained.
If the dog starts running ahead or straining on the lead you stop. The dog quickly learns not to run ahead and keep a bit of slack in the lead when walking with choker chain.
I don't need to use a lead my dog understands from training he has to walk beside me on left side he never drifts more than 4-5 ft away when sniffing stuff.
Guide dog training is also very impressive the dogs understand walk/dont walk at crossings.
Never approach a guide dog for anything when they're working it distracts them.
Choker chains, interesting. It’s my daughters Beaglier, he’s 2 ‘n half now and more obedient but I’m still never going to take the lead unless she’s with me.
He’s a beautiful dog.
My daughter was in Bunnings recently, waiting at the checkout line, a man was behind her and he said, that’s a beagle isn’t it? She said yes. He said he had a beagle that he loved and the kids loved, then one day on the property , he picked up a scent and they never saw him again and how devastated they felt.
Then, he left the queue and daughter doesn’t know where he went. She said he must’ve got very sad seeing a similar dog that reminds them of that time. I reckon he must’ve gone into his car to cry a bit maybe.
Leads are more important than we realise.
I certainly don’t like those extendable ones. Not for me no thanks!
