All materials seem to be top quality. It is more than strong enough for my very energetic and powerful 65 lb. dog who usually walks very good but occasionally lunges. The material is soft and comfortable and easily stuffs into my pocket. The 6' length and the end loop are the perfect size. Finally, the snap swivel seems heavy duty and works smoothly.
To me, this leash would be at the very top of a five star rating, nearly perfect.This is a nice sturdy leash, and reflects the light as it should, except the reflective stitching is only on one face of the leash. I'd give it 5 stars if it was reflective on both sides. If the side without stitching is the side facing the cars, it won't serve it's purpose of letting drivers know to keep an eye out for my dog...
Buy Rogz Reflective Dog Lead Now
This lead is a bit flimsy and really not made for bigger dogs. I was surprised of how thin this lead is ... about half of what I expected. Cost shouldn't have been as high as it was ($12)Read Best Reviews of Rogz Reflective Dog Lead Here
We recently purchased two leashes (3/4and 1-inch, both in black), a collar and a harness, all made by Rogz. While the collar and the harness seem fine, the leashes are not durable at all. Our dog playfully bit through them in no time while playing and grabbing at his leashes. When we contacted Rogz in South Africa and brought the flimsy nature of their leashes to their attention, their customer service had the following to say:"The "tears/cuts" look very neat for teeth marks and we would have loved to have had the physical items to exam. Nevertheless, we can only assume that these leads were used for tie-outs. HLL leads should not be used as tie outs only HLM (double stitched) can be used for Temporary tie outs. We are also concerned as to why the dog was chewing on the leash. This behavioural problem can be a result of boredom, anxiety, etc. and may need to be addressed."
First, they accused us of making these cuts. Then they contradicted themselves and said that we must have used the leashes as tie-outs which the dog chewed through. Of course, neither of this is true and we had told them as much in our original comments to them. But that's not all. Their arrogance and presumptuous expertise in all things dog led them to also suggest to us that our dog must have behavioural issues that needed to be addresses. Not cool! And terrible marketing and customer service!
We've decided to stick with a sturdier and much cooler brand (Lupine) and are determined never to use Rogz products ever again. Not only are Lupine products extremely well made, they are also guaranteed for life. Best of all, they are made right here in the U.S. (New Hampshire).The leash seemed to be fine, but it followed the dog into a pond (and into the ocean and into a lake...) After a few days, the latch wouldn't close without a struggle. I had to get a new leash.
