AK-9 Long Traffic Control Dog Lead

Built for working dogs and serious handlers. An aircraft-grade combat clip, dual padded handles and reflective woven nylon — total control, day or night.

Total control. Zero fuss.

Engineered for working, training, military and guard dogs.

Part of the AK-9 range, this 75cm combat-clip traffic control lead is built to take the strain. The combat clip is solid, aircraft-grade aluminium — strong enough to withstand the rough, sudden tugs that snap lesser clips — and it's guaranteed to last the lifetime of your dog. A quick-release lock snaps tight onto your dog's collar or harness and releases the instant you press both sides, which makes it ideal for training working and military-type dogs.

Two thickly padded handles put you in charge: the upper handle is large enough to slip over your wrist when you want to give your dog a little freedom, while the lower handle is there for close control when you need to pull your dog in fast. Reflective tape woven through the firmly woven nylon keeps you both visible on night walks. It works best on larger, stronger dogs such as Boxers, German Shepherds and Rottweilers, and arrives in a reusable pull-string bag. The handle carries a loose stainless steel accessory ring for hanging a poo-bag dispenser, a treat bag or other kit — or clipping to a hands-free walking belt.

About brand

AK-9 is the Vetfleece range for dogs that pull, work and walk in all weathers, and for the people holding the other end of the lead. Everything in it is built around the same idea: metal where a plastic clip would fail, a handle where you need one, and something reflective for the dark. It began with dog leads, grew into a collar and a harness, and now covers the car and the bed as well.

The hardware story

Most dog leads fail at the clip, so the range starts there. The combat clip on the Combat Clip Dog Lead clamps the moment it meets a D-ring and releases only when you press both side clips together. On the Long Traffic Control Dog Lead it is solid aircraft-grade aluminium, backed by two padded handles. The Carabiner Clip Dog Lead takes a different route: a climbing-style carabiner rated to 422kg of pulling force. The Combat Clip Dog Collar carries the same thinking round the neck, with an aircraft-grade aluminium cam-lock clasp, a welded 316 stainless steel D-ring and a close-control handle in reflective webbing. The combat clip, carabiner and traffic leads are firmly woven nylon with a ring on the handle for a treat bag, a poo-bag dispenser or a hands-free belt, and several were designed and tested in-house by our office dogs, Ruby and Boyo.

Leads for every kind of walk

The short Traffic Control Dog Lead strips out slack beside roads and in crowds, and joins to a second lead for two dogs. The Dog Slip Lead is a lead and collar in one, 120cm of reflective rope with an adjustable loop, for quick trips and kennels; fit it carefully, introduce it gradually, and keep it for dogs that walk calmly rather than dogs that lunge or pull hard. The Dog Training Lead is a long line in 5m, 10m and 20m with a 360° swivel clip, for recall work on the beach or in the field.

The harness, the dark and the car

The Dog Power Harness has a collapsible control handle, three weather layers with a neoprene inner, a curved quick-release buckle, and glow-in-the-dark patches alongside reflective stitching, in five sizes by chest measurement and 11 colours. From Medium up it carries the USB-C Rechargeable Harness Torch, a 126g zoomable torch with ten modes that also works in your hand. For journeys, the In-Car Anti-Shock Dog Safety Seat Belt plugs into the seatbelt slot and clips to the harness, never a collar, with a bungee to soften sudden braking, and AK-9 Vent Locks hold the boot ajar for airflow in four sizes, though never as a reason to leave a dog in a warm car. The Dog Car Travel Kit gathers those pieces on one page.

Rest after the walk

The High Raised Dog Bed lifts your dog onto breathable mesh on a powder-coated steel frame that dries fast and wipes clean, with an absorbent Noodle Cover for wet, muddy dogs and a Replacement Mesh Cover to keep the frame in service. You will find all three, with sizing help, in our raised dog beds category. The Pet First Aid Kit for Emergency Care, in a rugged canvas case, rounds off the range for days out.

Browse the full range of dog leads, collars and harnesses, where you will also find the harness and collar size tables if you are unsure which size to order. As with any dog gear, check clips, stitching and webbing regularly and replace anything that shows wear.
