Do dogs need leashes?

Dogs usually do need leashes. Leashes are an essential tool, both for initial training and ongoing control and safety during walks. Many municipalities also have leash laws that require dogs to be on a leash in public spaces.

How do I know which dog leash type to buy?

The best way to know which type of dog leash to buy is to ask your trainer or vet for advice. Choose a leash that's suitable for your dog's size, walking environment, and temperament, and secure it to a well-fitting collar or harness. Many dogs do just fine with a standard leash, but you can also choose specialty leashes like running or bungee leashes for an active lifestyle or training leashes for new dogs and puppies.

How long should a dog leash be?

A dog leash should be long enough that your dog doesn't feel too constrained, but short enough that you have good control. Most standard leashes are around 6 ft. in length, but you may want to choose a shorter one for walks in busy areas, for training, and for dogs who require more control. You can also find long leashes of up to 20 ft., which can give your dog more freedom to explore in safe, open areas.
