Mighty Paw Leather Dog Leash for Large Breeds - Soft Padded Handle - Extra D-Ring for Waste Bags - Strong Climbers Clip - 6 Ft Dog Leashes for Large Breeds - Leather Lead - Brown

Edit: Original 2 Stars. So turns out it was a defective leash. The company was very responsive and immediately sent me a new one. Used it for the past week and no problems so far. I was impressed with the cust service and bought another item from them. Will see how that it and will update the leash if anything comes up.Picture this you’re walking through a festival with your new puppy. (Even with all the new puppy bulls**t, you still love him to death. That’s why you’re buying an expensive leash). People are all around you and your puppy is still super curious and stupid. All of a sudden he/she gets loose off the leash, runs, and disappears into the crowds. Your heart jumps out of your chest. You shove, and push, and stiff arm all the people in your way. Finally after a bunch of panic, you find your puppy, pick them up, and don’t let them go for the rest of the evening. Scary right? That’s what happened to me and Cooper, and it sucked.When I got the leash I was like holy crap. This leash is awesome. The leather in durable, right length, and super soft. Great job Might Paw. But the carabiner sucks!! Look at the pictures. The design is terrible, it’s suppose to lock properly like in picture 1. But in picture 2-4, the lock isn’t secure. It stays pushed to the right unless I push it in myself. At first it was automatic, but now I have to make sure it’s locked every single time. But sometimes you’re distracted and want a leash that’s quick & easy to put on and to not worry if your leash is locked correctly or not.For all the people who love their pets. Avoid this specific leash, I like their products really do. But until they fix the carabiner design. Stay away if you love your little ones.

I love leather products and this one is no exception . The leather is soooooo soft and comfortable! I love that there is a D ring by the handle for poop bags (seriously, why don't all leashes have this?!), the handle is padded (but not too think that its clunky - like some are), and the 6 ft length is great. The lightweight caribiner clip looks and functions easy. The only minor thing I'd say is when I use on my 65 lb dog and she tries to pull, I can feel the leather "give" a little (as in slight stretch). Of course this is normal, its leather, but the first time it did this it scared me a bit. But the leather seems very strong - so I'm not worried. Also as someone who actually did many years of leather craft in 4-H, I'm always amazed when they don't "finish" the edges with an edge smoother - just to make it look more "polished". But I'm being picky. Overall this is a GREAT leash that feels wonderful in the hand and smells nice too!

I really like this leash. We have a giant GSD Great Pyr mix. He's a good walker because we use a prong collar with him, you need to realize the pro's and con's to leash materials.PRO - the leather is soft, good quality. This leash looks great now and is only going to look better as it ages - we had used cheap throw-away leashes before but it was time to get something nice for our pooch!CON - the main con to leather is going to be the strength. There's a little give to this, its normal. If you have a dog that gets aggressive around other dogs or people, or pulls with all his/her might - leather is NOT what you want. If your dog is good on the leash or responds to correction, then leather is no issue. My dog gets excited/playful so has certainly gave this good pulls and I don't see it breaking - but if your walk is spent battling a big puller I'd sat get something stronger even if its not as nice looking.I didn't notice any chemical smell some reviews pointed out, just leather smell. Feels nice in my hand! Its long, my dog is tall with long legs and sometimes I let him browse around or play with other dogs so its perfect for me - if you don't have a really big dog I don't think you need the length.

The Pros: 1) The leash is affordable, beautifully stylish, and well made. 2) The handle is padded and stitched. 3) The D-ring for attaching a dog waste bag dispenser to the leash is a thoughtful touch. 4) I particularly appreciate the strong carabiner clip for attaching the leash to the dog collar.The Cons: 1) The leash has a strong odor. It’s not unpleasant, but it is strong. I presume the odor is related to the chemicals they use during the tanning process. What is worse is that the odor remains on your hands after handling the leash. 2) Under product features & details it is noted that the product is “BORN IN THE USA: Mighty Paw is a Family Owned business operating out of Rochester, NY.” I presumed the product was also manufactured in the USA, but it is not. The product is manufactured in CHINA.Final Thoughts: In my opinion, Mighty Paw should 1) be more transparent about where the product is manufactured, and 2) find a way to eliminate the strong odor. If they cannot resolve the odor issue, they should disclose the chemicals used in the manufacturing of this product. I also encourage them to consider adding stitching around the rivets securing the carabiner clip to the leash.

Extremely high quality. I really like the carabiner style snap.

This leash is a luxurious one that I can see using every day for a large dog like a German Shepherd. The details are well thought out, and the padded handle has a soft suede interior that doesn’t make it too thick, just enough for comfort.I really like the caribiner clip, which I have also used on Mighty Paw’s rope leashes. They are very strong, even though they are light, and very easy to attach in a hurry. I am going to send it to my daughter who has a working line German Shepherd, and I am sure she will love it.I have two smaller Shiba Inu dogs, and it is just too substantial a leash for them. It would be awesome if you could make it in a 1/2” size for medium to smaller dogs.

Good quality, strong with a comfortable padded handle

Very well made lead, large clasp easy to use.Leather softener applied weekly to keep in good condition

Wir haben die Leine wegen des weichen Leders gekauft und des Kletterhakens. Bislang hält sie nach 3 Monaten immer noch, was sie verspricht. Dran hängt ein 15 Kg schwerer Beagle, der gerne mal sportlich zieht. :-)

The best leash I've owned, good length and comfortable in your hand even has a D hook for baggies.

This is a sturdy leather leash. I like that they used rivets instead of stitching as stitching tends to disintegrate as it ages. I also like that there is a poo bag holder. The handle is very comfortable.
