Which is the best dual dog leash?

It looks like this one. Only it is rated for large dogs. Hope that helps a little

Thanks! How much longer does each side get when you release it to maximum capacity? In the picture it looks about like mine. I like to walk the dogs on a dual leash because if my GSD decides to chase a car then I have both of my hands on the leash to keep him from breaking away from me. On separate leashes when he catches me unexpectedly I only have one hand on it and that is not good. That is why I am looking for a dual leash but one with plenty of room on each side for the dogs to enjoy the walk. Maybe having that much available leash on each side is not safe or something so they don't have a leash like that available.

You've gotta get the dual leash by Xtreme Pet Products. I own two of them! Keep in mind that they have a bungee feel and takes a bit to get used to. Never use with hard pulling dogs. They WILL have the advantage.
I like these leashes because the handle is rubber and triangle. Nice comfy grip. Also, the attachment is on a swivel and just under the handle. The leashes are about 5 feet long. They are so great when one dog is peeing on a pole and the other decides he's bored and wants to move on...no jerk to the neck like some other couplers.
I also have their 80 ft recall training lead. It has the same benefits-triangle rubber handle and swivel.
Haven't had to replace them yet! Great quality!

I don't personally use one, but a few of my clients from the daycare do. They seem to be along the lines of this one.

Thank you! I checked it out and this is what I was looking for-only one thing, the lead looks a bit thin. Do any of your clients who use that leash have a dog that is over 100 lbs?

The biggest of the couples that uses them is probably 80lbs ish. The larger model of it is pretty heavy duty. I actually did try it once for my GSD and my ex-roomies Basset, but that didn't work so well because he was awful at walking on leash and just pulled my boy behind him My dog is 85 lbs and the Basset was about 50lbs a the time. I'd check for a warranty and see if there's a weight limit.

There is just the two models right? The small and the normal? I tried to find a heavy duty one but couldn't unless I am overlooking it. In the picture the regular one looks thin, but since you have seen it perhaps it is stronger than it looks. I just want to make sure that the regular one is the sturdiest one they have before I order.
