Product Information

You or the dog should never think when using a long line, that they are on a lead. The purpose of the recall long-line training is to teach the owner the techniques of dog control when the dog is off the lead. The long line allows the owner to stop the dog from rewarding itself by ignoring commands or trying to run off. A: The handle is made of a comfortable double layer woven material which makes it easy to hold onto while also being extremely durable. So, if you have a small dog you might be more comfortable using a smaller, lighter line (such as a cotton or a narrow and short biothane line for small dogs!), like a 1/2 inch 15 ft line, but if you’ve got a bigger dog? Go for a bigger leash. Parachute cord needs to be stepped on, rather than grabbed with your hand. If you tie knots in the cord every few feet, it will be easier for your shoe to actually catch the cord as it moves along the ground. A: No, you will need to select the size that best fits your needs from 10ft, 15ft, 30ft or 50ft lengths.

We’ll look at these in more detail below, but the essence of the long line is that it makes your training efforts much more effective. It does this by preventing the dog helping itself to all kinds of rewarding behaviors (such as ignoring your whistle and chasing butterflies instead) without your permission. What length dog training lead should I buy? Try not to hold the end of the long-line, even if it has a handle. Allow the dog to trail it on the ground. This will enable the dog to feel free and it will give the effect of being off-leash. (Preparing better for actually being off-leash.)Without the correct training, and the ability to stop the puppy from ignoring you and running off you will fail. My strong advice to my clients is the puppy should never be let off without a long line in place. It is always better to teach something than try to undo a behaviour. Remember a puppy doesn’t know what it doesn’t know. If you never let it run around freely away from you in the early days of training then it doesn’t miss doing that or think about it. It is better to limit your puppies’ freedom in the early days and give more as you have the skills on board. Whichever behavior you choose, make sure your dog loves to do it. Start training in a quiet environment without distractions and pile on the treats. This will show your dog how easy it is to get rewarded for the new task. Next, build distractions into your training. Then add the trigger at a below-threshold distance. When your dog looks at the trigger, ask for the replacement behavior. Shower them with treats when they obey. Finally, ask for the new behavior while slowly moving closer and closer to the trigger. If your dog reverts to lunging, you’ve moved too far, too fast. Eventually, rather than lunging, your dog will see the trigger as a cue to do the new behavior and earn a reward.

SPECIFICATION: Includes – Cotton Lunge Line with Rubber Stop – 35. 1 ” Wide Poly Web, Rubber Stopper, Strong Cotton Web, Natural Color. Gives you more freedom to move around while walking or training your pup, as the lunge line allows them to move about without getting too far away from you. One I use for general sniff about and decompression walks (particularly with my hounds!) – this one is about 15 foot and much lighter and easy to handle. The other one I use for recall training with clients that’s 60ft, and very heavy.When it comes to choosing the best lunge line for dogs, there are several types to choose from. The most common types are flat lines, rope lines, and webbing lines. Be aware of what’s around you when allowing your dog freedom on the long line. If your dog runs for something and you are caught off guard not holding the line properly it could run through your hands and cause an injury.
