Questions & Answers

9 Customer Questions


I have a 65-70lbs GSD and she is very strong. Will this leash be good for her?

Answer by ChewyJan 19, 2019
This lead is suitable for use with small, medium and large breed dogs. The 30-foot check cord allows you to gradually give any dog more space while maintaining control. It's great for training to come on command and retrieving to hand.

Why doesn’t it have a handle?

Answer by ChewyNov 19, 2020
The Mendota Products Pro-Trainer Check Cord Dog Lead doesn't have a handle loop. An alternative is to tie a double figure eight knot which is easy to undo.

How easy is to tie and then untie knots in it. Does it cause any weakness in the rope after untying a knot

Answer by ChewyJul 23, 2019
This lead is made from a waterproof, long lasting and multi-filament polypropylene rope and should withstand being tied and untied.

I plan on using it the water on a regular basis. Will this affect its long lasting strength so it doesn’t break if the dog suddenly pulls

Answer by ChewyApr 12, 2021
This rope lead is susceptible to deterioration from moisture, more so with salt water.

strong rope with solid fastener on one end.

Wish it had the same fastener on both ends, that is what we thought it would be.

Great!

I like how thick the rope is, makes it sturdy in my hands. Great for walks where I want him to have more freedom.

Disappointed. I assumed there would be a clip on both ends of the lead, but there was one on only one side. This made it unusable for me as I need to clip it onto both my deck railing and my dog's collar so he can safely run around my unfenced yard. I've bought these types of leads other places and they always came with clips on each end. The product looks really well made. I just wish the description had been clear that there was only one clip.

The 30' lead comes with NO handle! Now, I will need to make a handle myself which makes it a bit pricey. Also, comparable products with handles are selling for as little as as half the price Mandota charges. If you can overlook these issues, it's a great product. OR, as they say it's a SNAFU of a product!

Sturdy quality

My dog loves training on this rope! It is very well made and has a secure dog leash closure. The rope is thick and allows for a firm grip. Great product!
