Tuff Pupper Heavy Duty Hands Free Dog Leash | One Large Dog Up to 125 lbs | Comfortable Shock Absorbing Bungee | Reflective Padded Handles | Lumbar Waist Belt 22-45" | Walking Jogging Running Leash

I wasn't sure I'd like this set-up, but man, I love this thing! Freeing up both hands while on a walk with a cup of coffee, sending a text, or going out with my camera is great. It's long enough to give my dog, Ryder, a little room to sniff to his heart's content, but short enough to be in control of him.He's a very well-behaved guy - limited pulling, zig-zagging, etc. - but there are a few dogs in the neighborhood he doesn't like. I've never had an issue corralling and redirecting him - the leash has padded loop/handles at both ends to allow easy control of your dog.I worried how it would feel when he did unexpectedly pull or lunge. The bungee works as a shock absorber - between that and the padded waist belt, I've never felt uncomfortable, even when he decides to lunge towards a bunch of pigeons.There are metal loops on either side of the belt - I use these for a clip-on bag holder and a carabiner for anything else I don't want to carry. The belt easily holds a treat bag, too.I take him for walks, hikes, jogs, and even take him on roller blade-runs to wear out his Aussie-Border Collie energy. I feel a lot safer with this leash than a normal leash - if i were to fall, both hands are free to brace myself, and I can't drop the leash and risk losing my dog.I've had this for 6 months now, and use 3-5 times a day; other than expected wear-and-tear, it's still going strong. I feel weird typing up a long review for a leash, but I get a ton of use out of it, and it's so much more convenient and comfortable than a standard leash. Again, my dog isn't a big puller, or unexpectedly reactive to wildlife, so I'm sure that also contributes to my comfort level with this leash.

This quality leash, along with the leash extension, has been a total game changer. The firm bungee element offers just enough give when my dog pulls ahead, and it actually prevents her from pulling harder. The material is also really durable and the cushion strap around the back of the waist adds extra comfort. When I used to walk her with a regular leash, my lower back was always killing me from her pulling (we're working on her fearfulness triggers). No more back pain. Also, there is a metal loop on the waist strap that's perfect for attaching the poop bag dispenser to. Waist strap also adjusts easily between me and my partner using it. I also really like that there are three leash handle loops, counting the extender, all along the length of the leash. This setup is also perfect for hiking when I use trekking poles: she's safely secured to me with extra length to walk ahead, while both of my hands are free to use the poles or dig stuff out of my pack without worrying about dropping her leash in the wilderness. Material is very thick and durable. Very functional for my needs. Super happy with this purchase.

I absolutely love this belt, it’s sturdy and convenient. Well-made and I like the metal loops versatility. I do wish it came with an option for a less stretchy leash, but the stretch is an intelligent design choice because it prevents you from getting jerked if you have a rambunctious dog.We’ve been using these for a couple of years for both our 30 pound corgi and our 60+ pound husky/shepherd. It’s convenient and frees up our hands to walk or run naturally/comfortably, clean up after our pets, give them water or treats, hold hands or use a phone.I was also able to attach a treat pouch to the belt for added convenience/pocket, a collapsible bowl and waste bags on a carabiner. Might look a little nerdy, but does the job as dog mom utility belt.The belts elastic is starting to weaken a little after a few years, but the stitching has held up well, as have the clasps and loops. Very well constructed and feel confident in the product on hikes and walks. Definitely recommend.

Honestly I don’t write reviews. I also kinda hate it when ppl haven’t used the products for long, here I am! But my last waist leash broke from the clasp and thank god I was next to my house. I got so used to it, I had the one that’s also featured as a popular item. I checked it regularly, I had it for 6-12mo. It was ok, I liked the functionality of it, I also didn’t know what I was missing. My guy is 65lbs of muscle. He’s “fairly” good lol. Lotsa training, but sometimes his nose just takes over and we live in a woodland area w all the critters. I thought about just getting another one, $17, can’t beat it. Well, turns out, u can. I highly recommend for u and ur pup that u indulge in the extra $10! U both deserve it! The back cushion, the ease of keeping it cinched to u and them. My only constructive criticism would be, I don’t want each end of the hand holds to be the same. The last one, the first rung was a bit further down. So u could keep them close, but not full heel. This one, it’s either fairly slack or super close. But another plus is the night reflection which is all along the leash. I hope this was helpful

This is an excellent product for dogs that tend to pull on walks. We attach the leash to her harness, and it works beautifully. The waist band is thick, incredibly comfortable, and easy to wear. It’s helped her stop pulling so much, improving her overall walking behavior significantly. The only downsides are that the waist band could benefit from more adjustable length, and the leash part should ideally be a bit longer. Overall, I’m very satisfied with it and already planning to purchase another one!

I bought this because I broke my wrist and struggled to walk my 90 pound German shepherd husky mix. It works wonderfully. It’s very easy to use. It is well made with a loop near the collar that makes it easy to pull him in close when needed. And it’s often need because he is still has a puppy brain. But the best part is the durability. I real thought I’d need to buy another due to his lack of manners (see picture). He likes to play tug of wars on our walks. So if your dog can be an a hole from time to time, this is for you. And before you come at me I love the punk and he does know how to walk on a leash, when he wants…
