Try the Total Pet flat figure of 8 dog lead. A premium figure of 8 dog lead specifically designed to discourage pulling & lunging! When your dog pulls, the lead tilts your dogs head down, breaking their line of sight therefore encouraging to walk in a normal manor.
Will this lead stop my dog pulling?
A figure of 8 lead works by a simple pressure & release system. When pulling the lead will tilt your dogs head down and when pressure is released, the lead will relax. This should help discourage the pulling action.
What size is best for my dog?
If you have a dog like a Terrier breed, we recommend the small/ medium lead. Dogs like Labradors etc, we recommend medium/large. If you have a medium size dog, either lead will be ok. The only difference is the thickness of rope, not length.
How do I get my dog used to wearing the lead?
We recommend you don’t try to force your dog to wear the lead. Gradually introduce the lead to the dog, you can just use it as a slip lead at the start and gradually introduce the loop over the nose. Reward with treats coupled with persistence.
Can I use this as a slip lead as well?
Yes, this lead can also be used as a slip lead.
Can my dog still open their mouth to drink?
Yes of course. The figure of 8 buckle is not fixed or anything its only purpose is to position the rope. Your dog will still be able to open their mouth to eat, drink and pant.
Key Reasons To Buy Total Pet vs Others
Padding Over Nose = No Friction Build Up!
Padding over the nose ensures your dog is comfortable when wearing the lead & no friction builds up over the nose if your dog is an aggressive puller.
Reflective In The Dark!
The rope has a reflective element running throughout, this ensure the lead is safe to use at night and in dark environments.
Main Benefits of Using a Figure of 8 Lead
- A figure of 8 lead allows much greater control vs a traditional lead and collar. By having a loop over the dogs muzzle pressure is taken off the neck which is much safer for your dogs health.
- It also allows you to use less pressure when controlling your dog as you have greater control over the head and are not being ‘pulled’ by the dog.
We believe a figure of 8 lead is a must have for any dog owner!
PLEASE NOTE: We are not saying this will stop your dog pulling completely. This is a tool which can work well for some dogs and others not. Some dogs will take to it, others won’t. If not, this product can be used as a conventional slip lead.
