"The leash is nice not an actual leash."

"The metal ring that attaches to the leash bent and the leash came off my dog. I would not recommend the leash for a large dog."

Bottom Line

Beware of the durability issues for larger dogs. Especially suitable for calm and smaller breeds. Recommend confirmation of sizing and functionality fits your needs.
