"I truly love this leash and matching collar. They’re both very strong and easy to clean. I do want to replace it with the same leash though. I just know now that we cannot leave her leashed to this unsupervised."

Overall, consider your pet's chewing habits and size before purchasing. If you have a smaller or less aggressive dog it might be a viable option out of nowhere.
