Anyone use a 4’ leash?

I’ve always used 6’ leashes for everyday walks, but on sidewalk walks, especially with lots of people around, I’ve got it almost constantly looped to eliminate some length.

I’m about to purchase a leather leash, and was thinking it might make sense to go shorter this time. I’d still use her climbing rope leash for trail walks, and her long line for beaches, etc.

Thoughts on 4’ leashes? Anyone use ‘em?

This is the one I’m considering: WEAVER PET Deer Ridge Leather Dog Leash, 6-ft long, 3/4-in wide - Chewy.com

I use an adjustable leash.

I have a bad wrist on my left arm , and with all my other old age orthopedic issues this comes in handy as I can put it over my should, or around my waist, I can lengthen it or shorten it. By putting it over my shoulder it is shorter and I can hold the leash and have my body as backup should he suddenly lunge.

The function of this looks very much like Pavie's but they're very different materials. Based on Eclipse's recommendation for the brand a while back, I bought this multiple options leash for each of my boys. I haven't tried all the variations :). (There's a video) It's not a lightweight leash, fyi.

This is what I have. I have two, one about this size and one with a wider leather. I actually like this size.
