SparklyPets - Hands Free Dog Leash with Reflective Stitches - Waist Leash for Medium & Large Dogs Walking, Hiking, Training, Jogging, Canicross, Running

I'm VERY happy with this leash setup. I have a difficult time walking both my dogs at once, handling two leashes, and maybe a bottle of water, my phone, etc. This leash is fantastic. Previously, walking them on two normal leads, is quite challenging at times. I’m not the type of dog mom, unfortunately, who has well-trained dogs who heal on command, at least not readily and consistently, especially at the start of a walk when they are all excited. They both want to pull two different directions, and God help me if they see a squirrel. LOL But they seemed to really settle well into this leash. The dogs did well with the double harness, there was no pulling and tugging of leashes in two different directions, and I really love the hands-free, no-hassle this affords. The leashes, fasteners, and fanny pouch all appear to be well made and sturdy. At first I was a little self-conscious because it is kind of goofy looking to have this ornate fanny pouch. But it’s SO handy! It has really made walking the dogs much more pleasant. No more juggling my water bottle, keys, treats, poop bags… I got back to the car from the walking trail yesterday and saw another lady with ONE husky on TWO leashes, one in each hand. She still had almost zero control over him. If that’s you, you definitely needs one of these! It gets 2 thumbs up from me!

This leash is amazing! I just successfully completed our first walk together with my 3 year old golden and 5 month old golden. This leash helped make my dogs walk together and prevented my older dog from pulling a lot. The design is genius because it helps prevent tangles despite the dogs cross crossing many times. It was also nice to be hands free so I could pick up and carry poop. I would recommend this leash to anyone who wants to walk their dogs together in a stress free way!

Was skeptical but hopeful for this combo. I walk my dogs daily and always have a hard time juggling them at some point during the walk. My pups figured this thing out it 5 mins. It is worth every penny! I was worried that the belt being connected to my dogs that they might drag me away but it's awesome! Allows you to be hands free and the little bit of pressure gives me the perfect momentum to keep a good pace. This is worth every penny and so many handles and padding makes it even greater. A def buy if you have a pair to walk!

Update: I've been using the leash with my two border collies on runs for over a year. We have hundreds of miles on it. I don't use the belt that came with the leash but use custom sewn belt that I have. The leash is still solid and doesn't show any signs of wear. Still a highly recommended dual lead leash. I have two border collies that I run with all the time on road and trail, and I wanted a double lead leash that could handle their pulling. They're not sled dogs by any means but they do like to run so I also needed a lead that didn't feel like it could fail at any time with the work being ask to do. Here's a list of pro's and cons. Pro's -- 1) Heavy duty - The lead and bungees are made for medium to large dogs and feel very well constructed. The rings and attachment clasps feel solid. This belt is probably going to be used for years before I have to consider replacing it. 2) Multiple leash handles - There are four traditional handles on the leash, one at the very end where it attaches to the belt, another at the point where the leash splits, and one each on each of the dual leads. It gives me easy options for taking hold of the leash depending on where I need to at the moment. The other nice thing is that the handles have Velcro on them that holds them to the leash body when not in use so they're not flapping around while running. 3) Double attachment points at the belt - The belt I previously used had one D-ring to attach the leash, and that meant should the belt clasp fail there was nothing stopping my dogs from taking off. My dogs are well trained and would not take off on me, but if we're running through town I want to know with absolute certainty that they're secured to me. This belt has a D-ring at each end of the belt so the leash can be attached to both simultaneously and no stress is put on the belt clasp. There is also a third D-ring off to the side where you might attach another lead, maybe for a dog that doesn't pull. The belt is of the same, heavy duty material the lead is made of. 4) Multiple bungee points - The main leash and each of the double leads has a strong bungee portion. There are no sharp jerks with this leash when we take off on a run. Cons -- Really there is just one... The "padding" that is part of the belt provides as much support as a paper towel would. It's completely useless, and I've just pulled the one off of my belt and threw it away. You can go onto some Canicross sites and buy dual lead leashes for two or three times the cost of this one, and pay that for the same quality. However, if you're going do any serious running with some dogs then I'd recommend you take the belt and store it away as a backup and get a true running/canicross belt. But don't hesitate to use this as your main leash. That's what I've ultimately done. I use this leash and a different belt combo to run my BC's. We've got about a hundred miles on this leash so far and it's definitely worth having.

I love this double leash so much! I have two bigger dogs. One is a little over 50 lbs and a German shepherd who is about 90 lbs. I hate only walking one at a time because I feel guilty leaving the other behind but I do not have to worry about that with this leash. I have had it for a few months now and I use it often. It's great quality and the rotating double part works perfect for keeping them untangled when they switch sides. Of course dogs will always find a way to tangle each other up but it's significantly less often with this versus two separate leashes. I love that it has handles in multiple places to allow control over dogs that may be reactive. One of my dog is reactive to bicycles so having a handle near his collar makes controlling him around bikes so much easier. I love that it can clip around your waist and makes it so much easier to walk them. You don't have to use the waist option and can walk your dogs regularly as well. I'm obsessed with this leash and will not walk my dogs on separate leashes again unless necessary. The double leash also works to keep each other in check. If one dog goes to veer off to the side they will not have much room to go without pulling on the other and giving that tension to recorrect them. 20/10 recommend for multiple big dogs!

Hi, I am basing my review on 5 different criteria: Customer Service, Product Quality, Ease of Use, Human Opinion, and Canine Opinion (since this is a product for dogs). First we have customer service. If I could have given them 7 stars, I would have. My order arrived missing a piece. They got me a replacement in under 4 days! They were quick to react, positive, and easy to work with. - 7 start out of 5 Next is Product Quality. Granted, I have only had this for 2 days at this point, but all the clips and connectors are solidly made and the leash material itself is strong enough that I don't worry about my two large breed dogs tearing it in half. Also, the bungee cords feel thick inside the leash casing, so I'm not concerned they're going to snap in a month. - 5 stars out of 5 Third is Ease of Use. To look at the instructions (which honestly you don't need), you have to scan a QR code. I'm fine with that. It's easy to use and cuts down on paper. But the instructions themselves when I looked at them made me a bit confused. They kept mentioning three pieces but the picture looked like 4. I honestly wasn't sure at first if I was missing one part or two. On the other hand, without the missing part I never even would have looked at the instructions and I still would have been able to figure out how to use this. So, for ease of use I'm going with 4.9 out of 5 stars. Fourth is Human Opinion. As I said, I have two large breed dogs. The Senior Citizen is 88 pounds. The 6 month old puppy is 44.1 pounds. I LOVE that the bungee cord means the frenetic activity of the puppy doesn't impact me nearly as much. Also, instead of feeling like my arms are going to be yanked out of their sockets every time the puppy suddenly changes directions I just feel some pulling around my waist is sheer heaven. And speaking of waists, mine is NOT small. Not only can this expand to comfortably fit around my waist but it can even go large enough to fit over my winter coat if I want (and I do want!). - 5 out of 5 stars Finally is Canine Opinion. Let's be honest, dogs are going to have a high opinion of anything that helps them get out on a walk. However, as I said I have a senior citizen and a puppy and, for now at least, they are not enjoying being hooked together. The senior is not happy with the puppy pulling at him (welcome to my world, Bear!) and the puppy isn't thrilled having an 88 pound weight prevent him from going in any direction I want. That said, as the puppy gets older and is trained better, I think this issue will died down. So, on their behalf in the Canine Opinion round, I'm giving 3 out of 5 stars. In the end, that averaged out to 4.98 stars. My opinion: if you have two dogs, this is a good purchase.

I like the leash overall it’s well made and looks great but it’s not the best fit for my needs. It feels a bit too long, especially since my dogs tend to walk close to me. The extra length causes it to hang and occasionally hit them in the face, which I don’t love. I can roll it around my hand, but the material is a bit thick, so it’s not very comfortable to do that for long periods. Another concern is that the leash has some stretch to it, especially when the dogs pull slightly. That might be fine for some, but for me, it makes me feel like I have less control especially in situations where I need to react quickly. I live in an area with a lot of coyotes and off-leash dogs, so I like keeping my dogs very close in case something unexpected happens. Even though I’ve trained them to stay near me, their instinct is still to speed up if they see something, and that stretch in the leash makes me a little uneasy. I know many people prefer longer leashes and more freedom for their dogs, and I do want my dogs to feel free too but only to the extent that I know they’re safe. I’m a cautious dog owner, and I don’t always trust other people’s dogs, especially when I don’t know how mine might react. That said, the leash still works fine it’s just that I have to be extra vigilant. I might keep it if I can find a good workaround, but I do wish it offered a bit more control and was slightly shorter. The concept and design are great just not the best fit for someone with more cautious walking needs like mine.

the made of the collar is of superior quality and I m in love how easy it makes it for me to walk my dog now. the bungee pull helps absorb most of the shock from the pull, and the handles are such good fit! Safety is top notch as well, with best tangle resistance!
