While the Bisley Double Stop Dog Slip Lead is a robust dog lead, the suitability for your 38kg German Shepherd depends more on the dog's tendency to pull and your training goals. For general walking and trained dogs, the 8mm braid is generally considered sturdy enough for a large breed of dog like a German Shepherd. For strong pullers, slip leads are often used as a training tool to discourage pulling, so if your 38kg German Shepherd is a very strong, consistent puller, you might want to opt for a thicker or heavier duty lead for greater comfort and security. Another option to explore is the Bisley Natural Slip Dog Lead which does offer up to a 12mm thickness.
