For dogs who pull or lunge or owners who just want a little extra cushion. Hands-free waist leashes can be used comfortably by most adults and are a great way to walk a dog without having to hold a leash. Waist leashes are made of the same material as other dog leashes, including leather, nylon and other fibers. Each end of the leash may be fastened with a clip, or the end worn by the owner may be configured like a belt with a standard belt buckle. Leashes designed to be worn around the waist can be simple in design and construction or include features. The following are several ways that waist leashes benefit both dogs and their human companions. 1. A waist leash allows an owner or trainer to maintain control and proximity to a dog without using their hands. Hands are free to hold a clicker, signal to the dog or reward the dog with petting or treats. 2. It is harder for a dog to escape when using a dog waist leash. The leash cannot be dropped or pulled out of the walker's hand. Even a wrist leash can slip off the owner's arm if the dog dashes away unexpectedly. 3. Walking with a dog waist leash allows the owner to carry and use the supplies necessary to clean up after their dog without compromising safety. Some waist leashes even include a pouch for carrying and dispensing bags for easy waste pick-up. 4. Waist leashes allow dog owners to walk or run with their animal without having their movements hindered by a hand-held leash. The owner's hands and arms are free to move naturally while exercising or to carry weights for increased resistance. 5. Standard hand-held leashes can put strain on hands, wrists, elbows and shoulders. A wrist leash is especially stressful to the delicate bones of the hand and wrist. Waist leashes put less stress on these joints. The whole body resists the dog's motion instead of just the hand, arm and shoulder.
