Such a great tool!
Size: 48" One Size Fits Most, Color: Black
I have had this product for a week, and I have nothing but good things to say about it! I debated for a couple of days as to whether or not to purchase it because the price seemed a tiny bit much for what looked like such a simple item. Now I know itās that very same simplicity that makes this such an effective tool! Best money I could have spent on my dog!
Iāve had my rescue Patterdale Terrier for a little under 3 months and I have quickly found out he is far from being perfect. It has taken a lot of time to begin working on correcting some of his problems, one at a time. Like many dogs, he also pulls when being walked. So what did I do as a regular person in need of quick dog tips? I searched up Cesar Millan videos on YouTube. š
I had purchased a Flexi leash two weeks after adopting my dog, and he broke it within another two weeks. While it was disappointing when I first found out, I now see it as a blessing in disguise. Paying close attention on YouTube, I noticed common features in all of the videos where the owners had pulling problems. Most owners in these videos had Flexi leashes, and the dog is always walking in front of the owner, not besides them. All Cesar uses to start making a change are leads just like this one. He never explicitly promotes his lead on his show, but after seeing the immediate increased control using such a simple tool, I decided to look online and found this. So I figured, why not?
My dog is 28lbs, so he isnāt big enough to overpower and drag me during a walk. After the Flexi broke, I resorted to using a regular hook-through-the-collar leash. The pulling problem was still there, and would only get worst if we came across a squirrel. As soon as we started using this lead, heās become much more responsive to my corrections. As soon as he is too far in front of me, even without actually pulling, I give it a quick, gentle tug and a āChh!ā and heās learned that he needs to slow down. If he actually pulls and wonāt immediately respond to my correction, weāll sometimes stop walking altogether until he sits, calms down, and realizes that weāll only walk at my pace. This lead has helped tremendously and thereās rarely ever any tension on the lead when walking now. Itās hard to believe it has only been a week since Iāve started using it, and I donāt believe Iāll go back to using the traditional leash unless absolutely necessary. I would definitely purchase this again!
And no, I have not been paid by anyone, nor was I sent this by any company to review it. Just a regular girl who is so happy to have found something that is actually seeming to work!
