Best Dog Leashes of 2022

With the warm months right around the corner, it’s probably time to update your doggy wardrobe. No, we don’t mean sweaters and shoes. We mean their leash! There are tons of options for your dog to choose from, but we’ve gathered our top picks for 2022. 

Ruffwear Knot-a-Leash

This leash is incredibly lightweight yet amazingly durable. It comes in different colors, so your pet’s personality won’t get lost behind the utility of the leash. Unfortunately, it only comes in a 5-foot option, so Fido won’t be able to wander from you. The base leash is 7mm wide, but the thicker option is 11mm making it perfect for your big buddy.

Kurgo Quantum 6-in-1 Dog Leash

The Kurgo Quantum has tons of uses depending on how you hold or attach it. You’ll have a durable, fun leash no matter how you set it up. It’s made of sleek nylon that comes in various reflective colors, so you’re safe, secure, and stylish. Plus, it comes in 2 lengths, each with its own levels of adjustability. 

Flexi Neon Retractable Dog Leash

Speaking of reflection, this retractable leash is designed for better visibility. Both the handle and the leash are bright neon yellow so you and your pet can be safely seen from any distance. Retractable leashes can be a hassle, but the Flexi uses smooth-roll tape technology to ease your troubles. Choose between the 10-foot and the 16-foot models for all your exercise needs. 

Logical Leather Leash

If you’re looking for something a little classier, then this one is for you. It may be heavy-duty, but don’t let that fool you. It’s made of full-grain leather and built to withstand over 245 pounds of pulling force. The leash only weighs 6 oz and comes in an entire rainbow of colors. It also comes in various lengths, so you will undoubtedly find something perfect for you.

2 Hounds Design No-Pull Dog Harness

The 2 Hounds Design will not disappoint when tying down tugging dogs. It’s made of durable nylon material and comes in various colors to choose from. The harness has two contact points, one on the back and front, which is the perfect combination for a firm yet gentle guiding hand.

If none of these are to your liking, that’s okay! See our suggestions from 2021 and 2020 (I couldn’t find a link to either of these, but I know they exist), or visit our store for SMS leashes.
