The Knot-a-Hitch™ is a campsite dog-hitching system using climbing-inspired components and hardware. Designed with car camping in mind, this comprehensive and intuitive system allows your dog to roam at camp while remaining on leash.

The Knot-a-Hitch™ includes a strong, kernmantle rope that can be set up between two trees or secured to a single post using Ruffwear-designed hardware and an easy-to-use tensioning system. Your dog can explore their new surroundings while you go about camp duties such as setting up the tent, cooking dinner, or building a fire.

Note: The Knot-a-Hitch™ should only be attached to a harness (not a collar).

What's New: We updated the shell material on the stow bag for improved durability and resistance to fading.

Dimensions: Rope Length is 28.5 ft (8.7 m); Stow Bag is 6 x 7 x 2 in (16 x 18.5 x 5 cm); 14.4 ounces

 

QUICK & EASY SETUP

Quick set up with easy-to-use tensioning system inspired by auto-lock techniques used by rock climbers.

SWIVELING CARIBINER

Keeps leash twist- and tangle-free, and securely attached to the line.

    Practical and useful

    I took this knot - a - hitch system camping for the first time I took my dog camping and I loved it! The system was very easy to set up, my dog loved roaming around the camp, and I felt assured she was safe. I recommend this to anyone camping with a dog or just trying to keep a dog in a small area like the park.
