BEST DOG LEASH

This leash is a personal favorite of Eve van den Berg, designer and owner of LC, who calls it her “everyday go-to leash” because its two clips and two O-ring attachment points mean it can be worn “a multitude of ways” — including as a typical six-foot leash, a shorter 3.5-foot leash, or a looped leash that slings across your body for hands-free walking. “If you’re in a busy area where your pup needs to be heeling close by, then you can use the cross-body attachment. If you’re at a park or on a hike, where you can afford your dog more freedom, you can easily lengthen it,” she says. You can choose between two sizes, small/medium (8mm width and 10mm width), and it’s available in many colors (yellow, blue, turquoise, purple, sky blue, and hot pink).
