Carhartt P0000287 - Shock Absorbing Control Leash

4 stars because there can always be improvement. This leash really is very nice. I used it today for the first time and it's well made. It has a cushioned grip on one end of the leash with a clasp that is available, and on the other is another clasp for the collar. The shock absorber is really nice and seemed to help with my dog's pulling. Overall the leash was great to use and felt very well made.

The shock absorbing portion wears out and stretches within a few months with daily use (dog about 65 lbs). This leaves you with a longer leash than you may be comfortable with. Also keep in mind that the shock absorbing gives the dog slack. If you are training your pup or your dog wants to pull away from you this does not allow you to pull back on the dog. Not a great quality if meeting new dogs or children. The leash is very well made. I would recommend one of the other two Carhartt makes.

My service dog owns a lg variety of leashes and since this one was purchased for her I never reach for a different one. The convenience and quality are definitely above many other brands. Anyone complaining about their dog chewing through the leash with teeth made to kill and crunch bones seriously need to access their poor choice for buying a product not specifically made and advertised as being for challenging chewers. Very effective positive behavior correcting training tutorials are available and work amazingly well. Our fur buddies need and deserve the effort for their safety! No regular use product of any brand should receive negative comments or to be scored lower on reviews based on an outlier behavior from a pet. That isn't, by any standard, a flaw in the design, appearance, or construction. A request to design and produce a chain leash with their quality hold loops & metal work with other amenities if workable, would be perfect though. A few sizes and color options of those would definitely be a positive & attractive addition to the product line ?

Our puppy chewed the leash in half the very first time we used it. It didn’t last 10 minutes. I expected much more from Carhartt, and I’m incredibly disappointed.

A great leash has multiple different ways of using it and if my dog runs after a squirrel the shock absorber saves me every time. Also if you forget a collar the leash can be used as one also.

The leash itself looks great. As mentioned previously, the latch that attaches to the dog's harness (using the carhartt harness with the two loops) the clasp begins to separate when our dog pulls on the leash slightly. Fearing that it would completely come off the harness, we switched sides of the leash attached to the dog but now we lose out on the shock absorbing portion as we hold him close. Would have been better with the same typical latch on both sides of the leash.

Excellent quality and great for a dog that tries to pull.
