Frequently Asked Questions
What is a longline dog lead used for?
A longline dog lead gives your dog more freedom while keeping them safely connected. It is often used for recall training, controlled off-lead practice, mantrailing and walking in open spaces where your dog cannot be fully off lead.
What length longline dog lead should I choose?
For beginners, a 5 metre longline is usually the easiest length to handle. A 3 metre lead gives extra control, while 10 metre and 15 metre longline dog leads are ideal for recall training, mantrailing and giving your dog more room to explore in open areas.
Is a waterproof longline dog lead non-slip?
Yes, 4Kyon waterproof longline dog leads are made from rubberised webbing with a comfortable, non-slip grip. The material feels smooth in your hand but still gives you secure control, even in wet weather, muddy fields or when your dog suddenly pulls.
A grippy longline dog lead is especially useful for situations where your dog has more room to move but you still need to hold the lead safely.
Should I choose a longline dog lead with or without a handle?
A handle can be useful when you want extra control or need to hold the lead securely. A longline without a handle is often preferred for mantrailing, tracking or controlled off-lead training, as it is less likely to catch on the ground.
Is a longline dog lead safe?
Yes, when used correctly. Always keep hold of the lead, stay aware of your surroundings and shorten the line when needed. A longline is not suitable for every dog or every situation, especially in busy areas or around other dogs where leads may get tangled.
Are longline dog leads heavy to use?
No, 4Kyon longlines are designed to stay lightweight and comfortable to use. Because they are made from rubberised webbing, they do not absorb water, dirt or odours, so they won’t become heavy, soaked or smelly after wet or muddy walks.
The longer the lead, the more material there is, so a 10 or 15 metre longline will naturally feel heavier than a 3 or 5 metre lead. But compared to fabric longlines, waterproof longlines stay much lighter in wet conditions and are easy to wipe clean after use.
Should I attach a longline dog lead to a collar or harness?
For safety, we recommend attaching a longline dog lead to a well-fitting Y-harness rather than a collar. If your dog suddenly reaches the end of the line, a harness helps reduce pressure on the neck. Attach the lead to the back ring to help prevent tangling around the legs.
