So i've been using this leash for a week now on all our walks and i figured id give a review. I bought the 4ft. long model because it's much thicker than the 6ft. long version.

the Good:
-Very comfortable handle
-Has a traffic handle that's the perfect distance and height for keeping her close when i need to
-does absorb shock when she pulls - just like is advertised
-bought it on sale at Petsmart for $14 which was a great deal

The Bad:
-This is my first "shock absorbing" leash so that particular aspect of it also makes the leash feel a little weak. The stitching, handle, and clip are all very well made but it just feels like it could wear over time and the elasticy traffic handle part could break if I'm not carefully checking it for wear every now and then which would make it a regular leash as that's the shock absorbing part.

Right now we are using it with her new Titan collar which has a heavy duty metal clasp. She's broken every plastic clasped collar we've bought so hopefully this will work better.

Feel free to add your personal experience with the leash : )
