Review of FLEXI Giant Tape Retractable Dog Leashes for Large Dogs Up to 110 lbs. – 26 ft., Black | Tangle Free Pet Walking Leash with One-Handed Brake, Pause, Lock | German Quality Product I had an older one of these that I retired to a memorial box when I lost my fur soulmate. My best friend brought her German Shepherd up again for a visit. I wanted to be able to walk him more easily and safely than by using the standard leashes that she brought with her. For the record, he is 16 months old and weighs about 95 pounds. He has had basic professional training and was doing great, but has become reactive to some things, and is hard to control outside in the yard sometimes. This leash is one I knew I could trust. The length is great and is easy to control with the brake system. The brake system is easy to control and operate and to lock into place (and to unlock as well). The tape is reflective, but it’s difficult to see that in my photo provided as I wasn’t able to use my flashlight and take a picture at the same time. The picture is just with the camera’s flash; plus, my outside floodlights had come on. It doesn’t tangle up, although it looks like it’s going to. Yes, it is slightly heavy for some to carry around, but it doesn't bother me. I felt it was comfortable in my hand and mostly easy to grip onto. It just works! It comes with a safety loop that incorporates into the harness/collar D-Ring, but I am not really sure how this really works or helps. I included a close-up of the instructions on the safety loop. I have not tried it yet. It is pricier than many leashes, but worth it. It’s made in Germany, and that is a plus to me. It is Ryker Der Hauswolf approved and I recommend it.

We bought the FLEXI New Neon Tape Retractable Leash for our 75 lb senior dog, and it’s been fantastic! He still loves his walks, but we needed something sturdy, safe, and easy to manage—this leash delivers on all fronts. ✨ High Visibility for Early Morning or Evening Walks The neon tape and reflective features are super visible, especially during our early morning and evening strolls. It helps us feel safer around cars and in low-light areas, which is extra important with an older dog who moves at a slower pace. 🛠️ Strong, Smooth Retract Even though our dog is older, he’s still strong when he wants to be! This leash handles his weight and strength effortlessly. The retracting mechanism is smooth and never sticks, giving him the freedom to move while still keeping us in control. 💪 Comfortable for Me, Gentle for Him The ergonomic handle is comfortable to hold—even on longer walks—and the leash has just enough give to feel gentle on his joints without compromising control. If you have a larger senior dog and want something reliable, visible, and easy to handle, this is the leash to get. Highly recommend for dogs of all ages and sizes, but especially for those golden-year companions!

Love it! It's much sturdier than the regular version, and it gives my dog plenty of freedom to explore without constantly pulling me down the street. My only complaint is that there isn't a convenient place to attach dog waste bags, but I usually carry them myself anyway. It is more expensive than other leashes, but the quality is worth it. It feels built to last for years, making the higher price a worthwhile investment.

My golden retriever is 60 pounds and she pulls really hard. The retractable leash is the only one that has been able to resist her pulling, and it feels so easy and smooth at the same time. German quality is always a good sign :) Neon color is a game changer, especially when it is so hot outside and you walk your dog very early or at night. I will definitely recommend it without a doubt. I just regret they do not have a potty bag holder on their website for this particular model.

This is a great leash for active medium to large size dogs. We use a bungee type extension on the end to minimize arm and shoulder stress with active and pulling dogs. This is our third 26' Flexi leash. They do wear out mostly because they get sand dirt and moisture inside. The weakest point is the spring hook for attaching to you dog's harness or to the bungee extension. If this gets dirt or sand in it, it will stay in an open position and the leash will get unattached. See photo. I am going to tape over this on our new one to keep it clean at the beach - since we use the bungee's spring hook to attach to the dog harness, this part can be taped shut long term. Good luck...

I have a couple Labradoodle puppies that are going through training, in walking AND in play. So I picked this up for them to give me a combination of control with them and freedom should I want to give it. If you've used Flexi, you know how good they are. If not, let me just preface by saying: the locks are great with minimal "accidental" engagements or disengagements, it is intuitive to use, it is well-built and holds up (so long as you keep the doggies from making them chew toys). However, new or old to Flexi, there are a few things you should know about this.....specifically: It's bigger and heavier....noticeably. Not anything that hinders me, but for some it may be an issue. The retraction spring is beefier. While you never really want to let a Flexi leash "just come back"; it's especially crucial here. I could see legitimate injury coming from letting it whip back. The bottom and top of the leash has the storage wheel for the leash exposed. This means the wheel can make contact with skin if you aren't careful and can possibly give you friction burns. None of these have really come into play with me, but I do feel they are worth mentioning as this is a slightly different beast from traditional Flexi leashes. However, in spite of these things, this leash is a remarkable tool of excellent build quality, smooth mechanics, and insightful design. I've used Flexi a long time and I will continue to use them so long as their quality holds. There are a dozen retractable leash brands......Flexi remains the best I've used and the Giant is no exception.

Great leash. Have a rottweiler and this leash is hefty and solid. I like the exposed tape.

This is a really nice retractable leash. It retracts fast so the dog can’t catch it to try to bite the end it’s very bright and it’s got a wider leash on it so it’s not cheap and chintzy

It is such an expensive product, and spoilt so fast

Me funcionó muy bien para mi monstrua de 2 años, talla grande y loquilla

Büyük köpeği olanlar ve beli ağrıyanlar için kesinlikle tek tercih. 5 senedir XL versiyonunu kullanıyorum. Bahçe ortamında toz toprak çamur, yere düşme, yağmur yeme aklınıza gelebilecek her türlü kötü şartta kullandım ve bana mısın demedi. Şimdi de yeni köpek alan bir dostuma alıyorum ki o da benim köpeğimle ilk yılımda yaşadığım ve bel ağrısına yol açan o ani çekmeleri vs. yaşamasın.

Best quality, nice colour and style

Schick und erfüllt genau meine Erwartung
