The Pets First satin lead is an excellent everyday walking lead. It is durable and flexible. Available in two sizes 4 foot and 6 foot. There is an extra loop near the collar clasp that provides an extra level of control in tight situations such as walking through crowded areas or keeping your dog away from wildlife.The convenient buckle at the end of the lead can easily be unsnapped and your pet can be left securely tied to a tree or bench or pole for a short period while you go into a store or finish a task.The satin nylon is soft and very flexible so it will not hurt or burn your hand in case your pet becomes excited and attempts to run toward someone or something.
