Knot-a-Hitch™

campsite dog-hitching system

Color

Selected: Red Clay

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.

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

    Great way to let dog roam without being off-leash

    This works so much better than the rope and carabiner I rigged up on my own. The design allows for easy tensioning (vs me having to figure out knots and adjust as the rope stretches). I also love the carabiner with a ring, which slides along the rope much more smoothly than a straight carabiner and also feels more secure. My dog has lunged and pulled on this pretty hard with no issues at all. It's the perfect way to have her out with me at camp without being off-leash or getting wrapped up in a tether. I do supervise her 100% while she is on this, but it makes camping much more fun for both of us.
