What's the difference between a "Training Leash" and a regular leash?
There really isn't a universal definition of a training leash, pretty much any leash can be used for dog training, and why not select something that you can use for non-training activities as well?
Options for Dog Training Leashes

Traffic Leashes : Adaptable for All Size Dogs
The "ladder leash" style is available in a handheld as well as hands-free version. They easily adapt to any size dog and allow a traffic "loop" handle anywhere along the length of the leash, giving control in the moment with the exact length of leash that you need.
These multi handle leashes are ideal for training your growing large breed dogs.
Long Leash / Long Line / Drag Line : Sniffing, Trailing, Hiking & Recall
A longer leash can give your pup greater range for sniffing, potentially reducing their tendency to pull. These are also great for recall training.
A 15' adjustable long line is easily managable for any walk, hike, or training session that you may be doing on trails or in parks. Connecting to a waist belt provides good control of your dog, regardless of what wildlife or off-leash dogs you may encounter.
10 or 15 feet are great lengths for most dogs, just long enough without being too long that they constantly get tangled.

Double-Ended Leashes : Dogs that Pull
Convert any harness with a front and back connection point to a "no-pull" harness by adding a double ended leash.
Now this won't take the place of training!
This helps you to communicate with your dog during your training sessions, and allows you a bit of a physical advantage for those big, exuberant pups.
And the best part is that these can easily convert to a standard leash when the pulling is reduced.

Short Leash : Close Walking or Quick Grab Handle
Working on your pup in more crowded urban areas? A shorter leash can be ideal - avoid juggling the excess length of a standard leash and go for something that is 2' to 4' in length.
Go as short as 12" in a clip-on leash handle or 6" in a leash tab handle if you need "something to grab" while working with your dog off-leash.
Leash tabs are also handy for longer haired dogs, you can quickly clip your leash onto the end of the tab instead of searching for a harness or a collar connection ring.
These and many other Leash Accessories can be customized to your needs.
Cross Body Leash : Loose Leash or At Heel
The convenience and comfort of a cross-body (or over-the-shoulder) leash is perfect for doing more urban walks with your pup. These are great for a dog who doesn’t tend to pull or lunge.
Cross body straps with the carabiner end are also the ideal option for connecting a handheld leash when you need to free up your hands briefly to pick up after your dog.
Waist Leash : All Dog Training
A waist belt is my recommended go-to for all dog training!
Make neighborhood walks and hikes so much easier - clip on the length of the leash you want and be ready to go with all your treats and poop bags already on the belt.
Your pup will appreciate not having to wait "forever" for you to get ready for walkies!
