Ensure the snap hook mechanism is free of dirt or debris. You can try gently cleaning it with a small brush and applying a tiny amount of lubricant if necessary, ensuring it's pet-safe.
Rope appears frayed or worn
Inspect the lead carefully. If fraying is minor, it may still be usable with caution. However, if fraying is significant or compromises the lead's strength, discontinue use immediately and replace the lead for your dog's safety.
