Shock absorbing

Shock Absorbing Reflective Nylon Dog Leash

A short coil of elastic sits between the handle and the clip. When the dog reaches the end of the lead, the coil stretches instead of stopping the dog dead — the jolt goes into the spring, not into your shoulder.

The rest of the lead is flat nylon with a reflective thread along both edges, and the handle is leather over webbing. Two lengths, four colours.

S and M are the two lengths — pick by the size of the dog, not the season.

A closer look

What's in it: handle, coil, hook

The handle

Leather wrapped over webbing, stitched at both ends.

The coil

Elastic cord wound inside a sleeve, so it stretches without snagging.

The hook

Metal snap hook on a leather tab, with a swivel so the lead does not twist.

Pick a length

Sizing: Two lengths in the dropdown

Two lengths in the dropdown. S suits a dog that walks close and a handler who keeps the lead short; M gives a dog room to range. The coil adds about a third of its own length under load.

01 / WEIGHT

Judge the dog

Under 10 kg, S is usually enough; a dog that ranges wide takes M.

02 / HAND

Check the handle

The leather loop should sit in the palm, not across the fingers.

03 / TEST

Pull gently

The coil should stretch and return. If it stays stretched, it has been overloaded.

Before you order

Good to know.

How long does shipping take?

Orders leave our warehouse within 1–2 business days. US and EU delivery usually takes 7–12 business days; tracking is emailed as soon as the parcel scans.

Will I have to pay customs or import duties?

No. Shipping already includes duties and import taxes, so the price at checkout is the final price. Nothing extra to pay the courier or customs when the parcel arrives.

Does the elastic make the lead longer?

It adds up to about a third of the coil's length when the dog pulls, then returns. It is not a retractable lead.

Is it strong enough for a big dog?

The webbing and hook are rated well above what a walking dog produces, but a shock absorber matters most for a dog under about 25 kg. Above that, a fixed lead gives you more control.

How do I clean the reflective nylon leash?

Wipe the leather, hand wash the webbing cold, and let the coil dry unstretched.

Full description

A lead with a bungee section and a braided rope handle. The elastic takes the first jolt when a dog hits the end, and the rope spreads the pull across the hand instead of concentrating it on one edge of a flat strap.

What you get

Shock-absorbing bungee section
Braided rope handle
Reflective thread through the webbing
Four colours: brown, orange, beige and grey
Two sizes: S and M

Choosing a size

Take S for a dog up to about 15 kg and M above that. The size changes the thickness of the bungee, which is what decides how much give there is - a thin bungee on a heavy dog stretches to its limit and stops absorbing anything.

On the walk

A bungee is most useful for a dog that occasionally lunges rather than one that pulls constantly. On a constant puller the elastic stays stretched, the lead sits at its longest, and you have lost both the shock absorption and the control a fixed line gives you.

Care

Check the stitching on the elastic at the start of each walk. A bungee that has stretched out and stays stretched is not absorbing anything - replace the lead rather than keep using it.
