Tape rather than cord is the right choice at this size — it is wider, easier to see and far less likely to wrap tightly around a leg or a hand than a thin cord.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spool keeps light tension on the tape at all times, so it never slackens into a loop on the pavement; as the dog comes back towards you the tape retracts into the handle. A thumb brake stops the dog where it is and the lock button holds the chosen length, so you can shorten to heel length at a kerb and let the full 5 metres back out in an open field. Sold here in black; flexi also make it in red, pink, blue and olive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 metres of flat woven tape, wider and more visible than cord.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated by flexi for dogs up to a maximum of 15kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape stays under tension and never trails slack on the ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-handed thumb brake plus a lock button to fix the length.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape guidance system inside the handle, which stops the tape jamming as it pays out in different directions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAround 200g, so it does not become a weight in the hand over a long walk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakes flexi’s LED Lighting System and Multi Box accessories, sold separately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs up to 15kg — small breeds, and lighter medium dogs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen parks, beaches and quiet lanes where a longer line is useful.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners who want to vary the length rather than commit to a fixed lead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToilet breaks and low-key sniffing walks rather than training sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot suitable for a dog over 15kg or a hard puller — the flexi Classic in size L, or a fixed lead, is the right answer there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold the handle in one hand with your thumb over the brake button before you clip on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePress and hold the brake to stop the tape; push the lock button while braked to fix the length.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalk the dog on a short locked length beside roads and let it out only where it is safe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet the tape retract under control rather than dropping the handle — a dropped handle is dragged after the dog and frightens it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the tape and the handle dry and free of grit; wipe the tape down after muddy walks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape length 5m.
