I have 2 leashes for my dog: A 10' walking leash, and her 75' training lead.
The 75 footer is for bringing the dog out to an open field and working on commands, while assuring she can't just take off for the hills after a squirrel. (She's a shelter rescue and still has a tendency to bolt if unleashed; no matter how much training she gets.)
