    Great running leash

    Very pleased with this leash. It’s light, durable and comfortable around the waist. Nice grab handle when I need to keep him close when walking. Convenient to tie dog bags to. Would buy again for sure!

    Love this leash!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE that this leash can be worn around my waist! And that it has a buckle so it's easy to attach around my waist or anything else (like a picnic table). Our new rescue pup is still learning not to pull. When he sees a squirrel or gets excited on a hike and sprints with all his force to the end of the leash, it's so much more comfortable for him to pull hard on my waist than my arm! I also like the patterns and colors. Thanks for making a green option!

    Awesome!

    Walking 3 dogs isn’t always easy so this waist leash is a great help! Awesome product. Happy with it.

    LOVE the design, color and versatility

    This is a great leash - as all of Ruffwear's leashes are. I love the fun tropical design in pink (not enough pink dog stuff in the world, I tell ya!).

    I wish there were a much longer version though! My husband and I aren't tiny runner people - no shade to runners, but we're more mid-sized - and if you adjust for my husband's waist size on this leash, you're not left with much leash at all, which makes our 90 lbs Shepsky a little sad. We have found that it has come in handy in other instances, like when we're at lunch and need to put the leash around a leg or something. But it would be nice to have a longer leash in this design. It really is a great leash which is why I didn't dock it a star for length option.

    quickly adjust the overall length of the leash

    Allows for easy fastening the leasth to a fixture for hands free securement of the dog.
