My Top Choice for Larger Strong Dogs

time2016/11/22

I was delighted to see this hands-free dog leash has a 160 l weight bearing limit as I needed one suitable for larger stronger rescued dogs, and this is the right one for my need. It will of course work very well for smaller dogs as well.

The dual leash handles, one on each end above and below the bungee section, make it easy to quickly reach down and grab the leash below the bungee and above the clasp to bring and keep your dog close to your leg if necessary, and to switch to using just a leash if you want. The leash handles are padded inside with what feels like neoprene for comfort as you hold it tightly and your dog is trying to pull away.

Unlike the woven mesh on other hands-free dog leashes I've used, the 1-1/2 inch wide belt is a tightly woven solid nylon strap for strength with no sewn seams. Adjusting the belt to your size takes a mere pull on the overlapping end to tighten or loosen as it slides smoothly through the end of the large 1-3/4 inch wide by 3-3/4 inch long by 1/2 inch thick snap-together buckle. The clips on each end of the leash and the two D-rings are also large in diameter and are securely fastened onto the belt for maximum resistance to steady pulling and sudden jerks on the leash.
There is a row of thick reflective thread down the length of the leash along with strips of reflective material on each size of the two long zippers closing the front pouches and a 3/8 inch wide strip of reflective material around the belt loop, all designed to keep you and your dog safer after dark.
A wide flat and strong rubber strip inside the bungee covering is tighter than you usually see on hands-free dog leashes, which helps keep larger and more rambunctious dogs under control as they encounter more resistance if they try to jump around or dash away from you.
The two pouches extend across the front of the belt to hold glasses, sunglasses, folding money, a little change, your ID, and presumably some sizes of smart phones. I still use an older-than-dirt flip phone. The zippers have corded pull tabs that are easy to locate and pull without taking your eyes off your dog or surroundings.
