When you buy the long line, you might want one of those wire lines covered in plastic rather than nylon. I am currently working on recalls with my other dog, and we've found we all get hopelessly tangled in nylon or any sort of fabric and it gets all stuck in the grass. We've been using the "tie-out" line (the wire coated in plastic/rubber) and for whatever reason, it doesn't get all wrapped around his feet like the nylon does and slides though the grass easier. The only problem is it's a tad heavier, so it may not be appropriate for a brand new puppy. We use a 30' tie-out line and if we need more length, we add a 20' nylon line so we are holding the "soft" handle but the dog isn't tangled in nylon.
