FAQs
Is this lead suitable for all dog sizes?
This lead is best for small to medium-sized dogs. It is not recommended for giant breeds or dogs with a tendency to pull aggressively.
Can the lead be locked at a specific length?
Yes, you can use the quick-stop braking button to hold the lead at any desired length.
How do I maintain the lead after a muddy walk?
Wipe the tape down with a damp cloth if it gets dirty and let it dry completely before retracting it into the casing.
What are the dimensions of the handle?
The handle measures 20cm x 11cm, providing a spacious and ergonomic grip.
Can the tape be replaced if it snaps?
For safety reasons, the internal mechanism is sealed. If the tape snaps, the unit should be replaced to ensure your dog remains secure.
Troubleshooting
The lead tape is stuck and will not retract.
Fully extend the lead and gently pull on it to release any internal tangles. Ensure the exit hole is clear of debris.
The brake button feels jammed.
Depress the button firmly a few times to dislodge any sand or dust that may have entered the mechanism.

- Extensive 8m length provides ample room for pet exploration
- Reliable anti-tangle mechanism for frustration-free operation

- Built-in shock absorption increases comfort for both dog and owner

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the lead, simply clip the metal snap-hook securely to your dog's collar or harness. Check the connection to ensure it is locked before beginning your walk. If the lead becomes wet (e.g., walking in the rain), pull the tape out to its full 8m length and leave it extended in a dry, well-ventilated area for several hours before retracting it back into the housing. This prevents moisture buildup and internal rust. Do not attempt to open the plastic housing, as the internal spring is under high tension and can be dangerous if released.
