- A best dog leash is can be used as a training belt, and the leash attachment converts to 3-6 foot lenth. This lenth is enough to provide freedom of movement while keeping your dog close and under your control. So Nylon or leather leash is the better materials for leash,other materials such as cloth and rubber as they aren’t as strong or durable.
