The best dog leash for everyday use is the nylon PetSafe dog leash. We also tested the best waterproof dog leash and found leashes for all breeds and ages.
Grossman says this leash, her favorite one, “is a very nice, sturdy, not super expensive nylon leash that comes in a couple of different weights and lengths.” She suggests choosing a length that’s just long enough that there’s a bend in the leash when you’re out walking (generally four to six feet long). “You don’t want a dog who’s out at the end of the leash,” she says. “Maybe if there’s a parade of squirrels across the street, you’re going to have to rely on your leash, but 99 percent of the time it should just be there as a safety precaution.” The waterproof leash also has handsome leather accents.
If your daily walk involves crossing busy intersections, Galas says to look for a “traffic handle,” a second loop closer to the dog’s collar that you can grab in case your dog tries to run into the street. “Some dogs will stand at the corner with you, and then they’ll hear a loud noise — a car backfires, a cat runs across the street — and they chase after it. But if you’re holding on to that traffic handle, the dog’s going nowhere. It’s safe with you, next to you.” Naser pointed us to this leash with a built-in traffic handle for greater control.
Compared to a standard model, Grossman says the Buddy System leash (her pick for runners) has “a little bit more flexibility so that if the dog goes to one side or the other, it’s not going to be pulling you along with him.” And because it attaches to your waist like the Stunt Puppy, it makes it easier for both of you to move freely.
When it comes to dogs who chew up their leashes, Galas says, “it’s not the leash, it’s the dog.” She explains that owners need to train their dogs to understand that their leash isn’t a chew toy. For puppies that are still learning, or dogs that just can’t kick the habit, Grossman likes the durable and aptly named VirChewLy Indestructible leash. “It’s a coated metal leash that’s also pretty lightweight,” she says.
For the leash, I keep it simple with this durable Coastal Pet Nylon Leash. Many people opt for retractable leashes, but I don’t think it’s necessary, especially if you’re training your dog to heel.
