Hands Free Bungee Dog Leash with Waist Belt

You're two miles in, arm out at an angle, wrist braced for the next squirrel. Running with a leash in your hand isn't really running. Clip it to your waist instead and your arms swing the way they're supposed to.

This hands free bungee dog leash clips to an adjustable waist belt, so your hands stay free for running, hiking or pushing a stroller while you stay connected to your dog.

The details that hold up mile after mile:

• Anti-tear nylon webbing: with reinforced stainless steel clasps at both ends
• Two padded handles: neoprene grips, one at the waist and one down near the dog
• Second D-ring: on the belt, for waste bags or keys
• Stitched reflective strip: sewn into the nylon rather than glued on to peel off
• Adjustable waist belt: fits most adults without a separate size to choose

Four feet at rest, five under pull. The bungee absorbs the jolt instead of passing it straight through to you. That extra foot of give softens a strong dog's lunge before it reaches your back mid-stride, and eases the jolt on his collar at the same moment.

Hands free or hand held, whichever the moment needs. Use the front clip when you want directional control for training, or the side clip for easy running.

Grab either padded handle to pull your dog in close when you pass another dog or a cyclist, without breaking stride.

Reinforced stainless steel clasps at both ends, a second D-ring on the belt, and a reflective strip stitched into the nylon so it's still there after a winter of wet runs.

Getting the size right

One size. The leash is 4 feet at rest and stretches to 5 under a pull, and the waist belt adjusts to fit most adults. It's built for medium to large dogs rather than for a toy breed.

Safety note: Because the leash is attached to your waist, a large dog that bolts can pull you off balance. Get used to it on a quiet route first, and keep a hand near a handle in traffic.

Use the hand-held mode with a dog you can't yet hold on a normal leash.

Clip in at the door, pick a quiet route for the first run, and run at your own pace, not the leash's.
