Dog lead

I saw on here a long time ago on someone who made a long lead. It was designed to go from collar then around dogs chest back to your hand for a dog pulling on you. Can anyone help me on the person whoadequate them. Thanks

I never saw that post, but there is a company up here that sells a lead. Lion country supply sells a suitcase lead that does that for I think $10.00

I think it was Millingsport hunting supply that had them on here for sale a while back.

You can do it with any lead that's roughly 4 ft in length.

Run lead down the dog's back bone, just before the hips go around the dog but hold the lead on backbone, (so as you're looking at it, it looks like an L) then with the loop end of the lead go underneath the L shape at the corner, Snug it up, And you have a suitcase lead.

Hope I explained it good enough

I do this on occasion and it works great (if needed) by wrapping it around chest and over top of the dogs whithers and lead point comes right off top of whithers causing the lead to pull on the chest area as it tightens up , usually they will walk right beside you and it works Great ! Never heard of doing it where it wraps around flank area ( unless im reading your post wrong ? )
Here lately i've learned that a good quality show lead put around ones neck correctly ( chain ,not rope) will hold and keep even the biggest dogs from pulling BUT no one carries a show lead in the woods so forget that ,ha !

I've had dogs that going around the chest never affected them. But if you go around the flank. Every one of them straightens their act up quick. They learn when they pull it causes pressure. When they walk close to you and don't pull there is no pressure. I don't care if it's someone elses dog, if they start pulling. I put the modified suitcase on them. I was at the truck hunt over the weekend, I ran into a buddy I hadn't seen in about a year. He handed me the leash to his dog and asked if I'd hang on to her while he finished putting a coat on. So as we're walking up there, he sees me out of the corner of his eye. Ask's hey what you got going over there. I explained. I handed the lead back to him. He couldn't believe the difference it made on his dogs behavior. So after the pictures were taken I showed him how to do it. He called me this morning and said his dog is walking on the lead like a veteran.
