Many cities have mandatory leash laws for all domestic pets such as dogs, cats, and even ferrets. Even if the animal is trained to heel or is being carried, a leash is needed to avoid a fine. Pet leashes come in a huge variety of materials, lengths, widths, and strengths in order to meet the needs of the handler and animal. Here is what to look for when choosing a leash for your furry friend.
A good leash should be made of a sturdy material, such as chain, braided nylon, or stout leather, as well as a good length for the type of walk. If the leash is for a dog that pulls, be sure that the metal snap is secure and of a heavy-duty metal to withstand the strain. For animals that walk alongside the handler easily, a more decorative, dainty leash is fine. Length is also a consideration. If you want your animal to be able to roam about while still obeying the law, extremely long leashes are a must. For city dwellers, a short leash will avoid any straying away from the handler's side.
When considering pet leashes, be sure to consider all of these factors before deciding. Obeying the law and keeping the animal safely controlled is paramount!
