Leashes

Reptiles can be taught behaviours. Granted, they may not be able to do tricks like a dog, but you can teach your reptile to walk along with you.

Reptile Leashes

Any pet reptile owner with a lizard can use reptile leashes.  The leashes are designed for comfort and safety.  You may also be able to search for other reptile leashes like those for a turtle, but most often lizards are the only animals truly cooperative with a leash.
Most reptile leashes are made from leather or nylon.  The leather is strong and durable.  It is also less likely to be chewed by the lizard.  The nylon is also very strong and durable.  Depending on the style of reptile leashes you are interested in you could have a leather girth with a nylon lead or one that is completely made of one material.
All reptile leashes with have an adjustable girth.  This allows you to move the girth to a wider setting as your pet grows older and thus a little bigger in size.  The nylon lead with leather girth is comfortable to hold.  As part of most leashes you will have a pivoting safety clasp in case your reptile decides to go a different way.  The lead can move instead of getting twisted.
You will put the lizard between the leather and cord that comes with the leash.  Depending on the style of leash you purchase you may also have a place for the two front legs.  The leather will then be cinched, but when tightening the girth you want to be careful not to go too tight.  Make sure one finger can fit comfortably underneath the strap to avoid harming your reptile.
Once it is comfortable and secure in place you are able to take your pet for a walk.  Most leashes are available in various sizes to ensure all pet reptiles can have a leash.  Small leashes are mostly for geckos, while medium leashes work well for iguanas.  There are also large and extra large leash sizes with most manufacturers.  These larger leashes are for monitors, bearded dragons and other large reptiles.
Manufacturers of leashes understand there are different needs for reptile leashes; therefore, they offer a variety of colours and styles along with the different sizes.  Reptile leashes are inexpensive, allowing you to give your reptile exercise and fresh air away from their terrarium.
Even if you do not want to take your pet on an outing you can use the pet leashes for other reasons.  For example when you clean the cage you can place your reptile on a leash to keep them in the same room.  You can also use the leash for vet visits.  Reptile leashes can make transportation a lot easier.  T-Rex is one supplier of reptile leashes.  They have four sizes with the safety clasps as discussed above.  You also have other UK suppliers available.  Do your research before buying a leash to determine what product is best for you and your pet reptile.
