flexi New Classic Retractable Lead Tape Large 5m, Black

Excellent lead - and you can use a harness with a dog seat belt attachment for even more length, when you are away from traffic Version bought: flexi Giant Professional L Tape 10 m black/ neon yellow [10 meter version] This is an excellent durable lead, though the "flexi Giant Professional L Tape 10 meter" is rather large and heavy at 890 grams on my scales. If that doesn't put you off, then for a dog which cannot be let off a lead, like mine could not, then walks in the countryside, woods or in a park with this 10 meter lead and a harness attached to a dog seat belt attachment - giving a total length of about 11 meters (and a more comfortable experience than a collar connection) - might be the closest thing to true freedom that your dog can feel. Given that the "L Tape 10 m" lead is quite large, heavy and expensive, particularly at or near its full price, I would imagine that the less expensive 8 meter versions - "Medium" or "L Tape 8 m" depending on whether the dog is under 25kg or under 50kg - together with the harness and dog seat belt attachment, should also offer a very good experience, and are no more expensive than many other 8 meter leads when on offer. Some of those other 8 meter leads might seem like better value for money, but often don't perform as well or last nearly as long, so are actually a false economy compared to these flexi leads. (The "Extra Large" 8 meter lead for dogs up to 75kg is also quite expensive, but so might it's competitors be for that weight category.) But this 10 meter one really would be my choice for offering ultimate freedom for dogs up to 50kg, especially if it's on offer and you don't mind the size and weight. For me personally, it might have felt like a hit in the pocket when I clicked on the "Buy" button, but it was sooo worth it - as I think that my dog experienced years of extra freedom from that additional 2 meters of length, long after I'd forgotton about that one-time expense. I found this lead to be strong, sturdy and easy to operate, with an intuitive and reliable locking/unlocking mechanism. It was easily able to manage being pulled on by my 25kg-30kg dog for years of use. A couple more points: I would not recommend using an extendable lead like this with a harness and seat belt attachment if you are going to be walking along the street or near traffic - as that extra meter or so is non-retractable and your dog could dart out unexpectedly. (The beach might also be more awkward if there are many other dogs around and not much space.) You can, of course, attach it to your dog's collar for those occasions. However, I'd recommend getting another shorter lead, such as a 5 meter extendable lead, for shorter walks where the intention isn't to exercise your dog, given that this lead (the 10 meter version) is somewhat large and heavy. Personally, I can highly recommend the Cool Bud "smartelf Retractable Dog Leash Heavy Duty Walking Lead for Small Medium Large Dogs Up to 110lbs" [50kg] here on Amazon, as these two - along with a sturdy short chain-link lead - were my leads and I was very happy with all of them.

Tried it today for the first time. It was great, My husky loved it, next best feeling of being free. strong and reliable, comfortable handling position. The price is well worth it

Does the job and has a nice strong lock to stop your dog when needed, it's great for letting your dog have some extra freedom but keeping them on lead. Only thing hold it back is that when the lead is locked it can tend to rattle as the cable moves back and forth slightly making a loud clunking noise. Not a deal breaker but can be a little annoying. Also this handle is BIG, not suitable for smaller hands.

It's heavy I already new this so be warned. Ihad the 8 my version of this lead they are well built sand will not stop this work I sometimes put it in a bucket of fresh water and shake it about gets all the, sand out then go for a walk with your dog to dry it out 😁😁

Very happy with this Flexi Giant Professional. I already had a 5m/65kg Flexi Xtreme which is great in its own way, but I found the 5m length a huge disappointment. 10m is vastly better. I'd like even more, but then you'd run into safety issues that become harder to stay on top of. I'm impressed that even with 10m of tape the recoiling spring works properly at all extensions - i.e. keeps the tape off the ground, away from dirt. (You shouldn't lock it with trailing lead on the ground, as I originally believed was the idea.) The retracting force isn't overpowered either - I doubt my Husky even feels it. It is properly engineered. The yellow tape is a big improvement over the orange that my Xtreme model has. Safety is hugely important with extending leads. On the downside, the brake on the Giant Professional has a clunkier action than the Xtreme. It's not awful, just noticeable - including a knocking sound due to "slop" when the brake is applied and lead pressure goes on-off-on-off... The Xtreme model has a shock absorber at the end. But it is very firm and short travel. It protects the mechanism more than providing comfort for you and the dog. I add a third party bungee attachment on both of these Flexi leads. (Be sure to use one with an outer fabric sheath in case the rubber snaps!) Not good for training, but useful for safety and comfort. I've been sent flying through the air by a big dog on a long lead when it suddenly went taut before. Not fun. Nearly a hospital visit.

Great lead, works well the extra 2mtr length helps a lot giving your dog more freedom but you have control, great if your dog has high prey drive or can be difficult with some other dogs, can see the lead from a good distance away, helps the good dog owners see in advance and they can get there dogs back on lead promptly, a great lead, very slightly heavier than the 8mtr, but you don't really notice this. Only down side is no dedicated poo bad holder location, but you can just clip one on the handle. Locking mechanism is good and seems strong

Fantastic dog lead. Has been used and abused for a year and half, dropped in muddy puddles and through rain and snow and still works really well.

Really good, perfect for our 6 month Jackapoo puppy. Let's him run around without being off the lead. We also brought the clip on holder for poo bags which is great as struggled in the past to find a holder than worked with an extendable lead.

Çok kaliteli çokta güzel gönderildi teşekkürler

great lead, for the price.

軽くてコンパクト。巻取り性能もスムーズで長持ち。やっぱりフレキシです。 ３メートルは長くはないですが、広場などではなく、住宅街を歩く時などはこれくらいが丁度良い長さです。 ただしこの商品は小さいがゆえに持ち手の穴も狭い。 痩せ型の男ですが、指４本入れて持つのは無理があり、人差し指か小指を入れずに３本で持つことになるため、たまに落としそうになることがあるのが辛いところ。手の小さめの女性の方ならぎりぎりかぴったりでしょうか。持ち手の穴だけ大きくしてくれたら満点です。 ８メートルのテープタイプも持っていますが、こちらは逆に大きくてかなり重いです。手が小さい方以外は5メートルが万能で丁度良いかもしれません。

Excellent lead. I use it for a German shepherd. If your big dog doesn't have a habit of chewing on theirs then it's great. If they do tend to carry or chew theirs you will have to train them not to do that or they will wear it down

Good, used on my cat she obviously cant pull it to be longer as a dog could so i have to manually pull it out if i want her to be able to walk longer but since its intended for a dog its not an issue it was to be expected. Nothing wrong with the product and works as advertised .
