🔗 What is a lasso leash or P-leash?

The lasso leash is a one-piece leash with a sliding loop that goes around the dog's neck, like a collar.
It is particularly used:

• in dog training,
• during the controlled-free walks,
• or for dogs not used to harnesses.

👉 Its big advantage: no need for a collar , you slip the leash around the neck, adjust the buckle, and off you go!

🎯 Why use a slip lead to train your dog?

The lasso leash is recommended for:

• learning to walk at heel ,
• correct the tensions ,
• strengthen the teacher's listening skills ,
• gaining safety with unsocialized or young dogs.

It offers natural and immediate control without having to pull hard or injure the dog.

💡 Tip: Choose a lasso leash with an anti-strangulation system (safety stopper) to prevent it from tightening too much.

🐕 Steps to properly use a slip lead P

1. Slide the leash around the dog's neck , just below the ears (control zone).
2. Adjust the loop so that it sits properly without pinching.
3. Secure the stop (safety lock) so that it does not tighten excessively.
4. Remain calm and use short commands : stop, heel, sit...
5. Correct with light pressure , never with a sharp blow.

➡️ Result: the dog understands on its own that pulling causes discomfort, and that staying calm releases the pressure.

💬 Lasso leash: for which dogs?

• ✅ Energetic or dominant dogs
• ✅ Puppies in training
• ✅ Dogs not used to a collar
• ✅ Medium or large dogs

🛑 Not recommended for dogs with fragile necks, those that are too fearful or too young without supervision.

🧠 Pro tip: Combine a lasso leash and positive reinforcement

Every good behavior on the leash (not pulling, walking calmly, stopping on command) should be immediately rewarded : a pat, a gentle voice or a treat.

👉 The dog will associate the lasso leash with a positive experience, and will learn faster!
