A twin handled training lead for training dogs not to pull on the lead, it will have a handle in the normal top position and a second handle lower down so you can hold on to your dog with both hands. For anyone like myself that tries to keep the dog on a short leash but finds that the conventional leads cut through their hands! therefore hindering the training of your dog.

Reward: this will make light work of training your dog to walk properly on the lead without the pain!

Sorry Dave, it's probably my fault (too tired today? :-? ) but I don't quite get your idea. A leash with two handles? You mean simply one handle for each hand so you have half the pulling on each hand? (Just wondering what kind of dog you have. ;-) ) Thanks for your clarification!

Steve, simply a lead with a handle in the normal position and an extra handle low down to aid with training your dog to walk properley on the lead without getting the pain of the lead cutting through your hands!

Thanks for the PM, it's clear to me now. [Edited the original post to reflect what I learned.]

Isn't that what "Choker Chains" were made for? I've used these with all of my dogs and they learn VERY quickly not to pull.

How 'bout designing frictional roller-skates for dogs so they can walk but can't pull.... just kidding! :-P

you find that in the uk choker chains are not permitted at most dog training classes, they are considered to be cruel!

having two hands trying to control a dog will impair your balance... design a lead that allows dog walkers to take as many dogs as they like with no tangling...
