On what's not given
Ancol do not publish a maximum recommended dog weight for this particular lead, unlike some of their other slip leads — if you have a large or strong-pulling dog, that is worth bearing in mind rather than assuming it matches their heavier-duty ranges.
Why we chose it
At 1.2 metres it is a genuinely practical everyday length rather than an oversized spare, and the reflective weave means it doubles as a low-light lead without needing a separate hi-vis accessory. It is part of the same Viva range as our other leads and collars, so colours and styles match up.
— Matt, founder
Size guide & how to measure
Leads are chosen by length and width rather than your pet’s body size. Pick the width to suit your pet’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 lead you can put on without unclipping a collar first earns its place for the moments a proper lead is not to hand — a dog off its collar in the garden, a quick trip to the car, or simply wanting a light, everyday lead rather than a full walking set.
This is Ancol's Viva Slip Lead, built from strong poly-weave webbing at 1.2 metres, aimed at daily walks, outdoor activities and swimming as much as short trips. It has a leather adjuster for fit, leather-effect finishing touches, and reflective weave detailing running through it for visibility.
- 1.2 metre poly-weave webbing
- Leather adjuster for fit
- Leather-effect finishing touches
- Reflective weave for low-light visibility
- Lightweight and weatherproof construction
On what's not given. Ancol do not publish a maximum recommended dog weight for this particular lead, unlike some of their other slip leads — if you have a large or strong-pulling dog, that is worth bearing in mind rather than assuming it matches their heavier-duty ranges.
Who it's for: owners who want a light, everyday slip lead for regular walks and swimming, rather than a leash rated for maximum pulling strength.
