This was an addition to our already large complement of soft grip leashes. We (Vegas Valley Schutzhund Club - DVG) already had numerous individually owned Soft Grip leashes in the 2 meter, waist and collar tab lengths which the handlers love. I now have both the 3 and 5 meter leash w/o a handle to use as drag lines during all advanced phases of protection training. These leashes offer the most enhanced griping surface I have experienced in 40+ years of dog training which allows more consistent and accurately timed corrections and teaching inputs. Their availability in so many colors allows color coding by ownership, and identification of special purpose leashes at a glance. The very bright colors really enhance the ability to rapidly identify the correct leash (i.e. forward pull correction vs. handler restraint leash) in dim light conditions. A well made, durable, functional, and easy to use piece of equipment which enhances our training sessions.
