Flexi-Leads sure do break!! They are designed to not break with a large
dog--the 26-8 size is anyway, but with too much stress, even a large dog
can break the snaps!! I have had 2 give up under the stress of a large
dog who did not want to listen at the appropriate time. The one time I
tried a dog snap on a horse, she was just walking around grazing, and
broke the snap like it did not even exist!!
Just my .02!!
