Read more about the Puppy Drag Line 6-Foot (Check Cord)
Heavy brass plated snap. 1/4" nylon rope.
STEVE: A drag line is just a small rope with a snap. It is about six feet long. Any time I let my puppies what I call "off leash" (in the back yard or taking them out for a walk in a field) just anywhere I am not going to have my hands on a leash that is attached to them. I have a drag line so that when I am ready to pick them up I can just step down and grab the drag line and now I have got him.
You don’t want to do that with a leash. You don’t want something that has got a loop or a knot or anything in the end. You want something that is just a rope; straight, no knots or anything to snag. And you want it small and light enough that an eight-week old bird dog puppy can drag it around and it's not going to bother him.
