Tracking lead Trixie 197446 for dog/cat, Bordeaux, length 15 m

Trixie 197446 tracking lead is a 15 m Bordeaux-coloured rope-style long lead designed for dogs and cats. The extended length gives controlled freedom during training, tracking, recall exercises and supervised outdoor exploration. Made from woven sail rope, the lead offers a flexible, lightweight feel that helps handlers maintain distance while keeping a reliable connection to the animal.

Advantages

The woven sail rope construction provides durability and a smooth surface that resists tangling and abrasion. Its 15 m length allows for gradual transition between on-leash and off-leash work, supporting reliable recall and tracking without sudden restraint. Absence of a fixed loop makes the lead adaptable for different attachment methods and prevents constriction around the animal’s neck.

Suitable for

• Tracking and scent-work training for dogs and cats
• Recall practice at extended distances
• Supervised exploration in open areas
• Fieldwork and search exercises

Key specifications

• Length: 15 metres
• Material: woven sail rope
• Style: rope-type long lead

• Attachment: designed without a fixed loop for flexible fastening

How to use

Attach the tracking lead securely to a collar or harness using an appropriate clip or knot suited to the animal and the harness hardware. Use the full length when practising tracking or recall to allow natural scenting and movement; shorten the effective length by holding the rope closer to the animal or by wrapping it around your hand or forearm for intermediate control. Monitor the animal continuously while on the lead and avoid situations where the rope could become caught on obstacles or create tripping hazards.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the rope regularly for wear or damage and replace it if abrasive fraying or weakened fibres appear. For safety, use a properly fitted collar or harness and never leave an animal unattended while attached to a long lead.
