Check your dog's leash regularly!

Check and clean your dog leash regularly with a damp cloth or hold it under the tap.

Check that everything still functions properly and opens and closes easily. The hardware (carabiners, screws and rings) of a leash and collar in particular have to endure a lot, especially if your dog pulls a lot on the leash.

That is why it is really important that you check this regularly, so that you prevent a carabiner or other ring from breaking during your walks.

Do you have doubts whether the belt is still strong enough? Then buy a new belt!
