Size guide & how to measure
Leads are chosen by length and width rather than your dog’s body size. Pick the width to suit your dog’s strength and the length to suit how you walk.
How to measure
- Width: lighter, narrower webbing for small dogs; wider, thicker webbing for strong pullers and larger dogs.
- Standard lead (1.2–1.5 m): everyday pavement walks and training.
- Long line (3–10 m): recall practice and open spaces.
- Short / traffic lead (under 1 m): close control in busy areas.
| Length | Best for |
|---|---|
| Under 1 m | Traffic / close control |
| 1.2–1.5 m | Everyday walks (most popular) |
| 1.8–2 m | Relaxed walks, more freedom |
| 3 m + | Recall training, open spaces |
Always check this product’s Specifications for its exact length and width.
Full description
A dog that pulls even occasionally turns a thin lead into something that digs into your hand well before the walk is over, which is a comfort problem long before it's a strength one.
Ancol's Padded Nylon lead lines the handle with soft, breathable neoprene, and finishes with a satin-metal trigger hook for easy attachment to a collar. This page covers two widths and two colours - black and red - so you can match it to a dog's pull as well as its collar.
- Neoprene-lined handle for grip and comfort
- Satin-finish metal trigger hook
- Durable, weather-proof nylon construction
- Available in two widths and two colours (black, red)
- The narrower width measures 1m x 12mm, rated to a maximum recommended weight of 20kg
On the wider width. Ancol's published measurement and weight rating - 1m x 12mm, 20kg maximum - is for the narrower of the two widths on this page. They do not repeat a separate figure for the wider one, so if your dog is at the upper end of that 20kg guide, choosing the wider width is the more cautious call even without a published number to confirm it.
Who it's for: owners who want a comfortable, padded handle on an everyday lead, and who'd like their dog's collar and lead to match without having to hunt for the same colour twice.

On the wider width
Ancol's published measurement and weight rating - 1m x 12mm, 20kg maximum - is for the narrower of the two widths on this page. They do not repeat a separate figure for the wider one, so if your dog is at the upper end of that 20kg guide, choosing the wider width is the more cautious call even without a published number to confirm it.
Why we chose it
The neoprene handle is the reason this beats a plain nylon lead at a similar price - it's the one part of the lead your hand is actually in contact with for the whole walk. Matching collars being available in the same colours is a small thing that still makes buying easier.
