Your big dog is gentle but does not look so. You may perceive him as the puppy you brought home but to the world 
at large he is some powerful entity not to be crossed. The perception is right to an extent, if he feels threatened; he could lunge and break a flimsy leash!
So when you are looking for a leash for your large dog, you need to buy something that is strong, durable and will not snap. Retractable leashes can work, but he would need to be trained for it. Large dog nylon leashes are durable and the leash should be wide and double woven for strength. Large dog leather leashe are a good option too. If the dog is of an excitable nature and will like to take the lead while you take him for a walk, get a harness. It will aid you to control him.
What you need to ensure is that the leash is stitched well, has a good quality steel or brass buckle that is attached to the collar and that the loop that you will hold will not bite into your hand. If you are looking for quality leashes that will be safe and not snap easily or leave burns on your hand if you’re pet pulls you strongly, you could look at the collection of large dog leashs specifically for big dogs at PetKlace.
