Hitch Hiker™ Leash

We bought a set of equipment from Ruffwear including this leash form our conservation working dogs. Love the flexibility of this leashes ability to extend and shorten the length FAST! We work in extremely remote areas and often use very restricted paths if not bushwhackimg outright in the forest. The ability to shorten or lengthen rapidly is super helpful. Also there are a lot of "street" dogs here in Panama so it makes positive control of our working dogs quick and easy when encountering, not always friendly, other dogs.

I purchased this leash for my Chocolate Lab, wanting a product that would allow me to give him extra lead, as well as secure to my waist. I love the additional control it gives me with the ability to shorten the lead with a few easy tugs, while also giving him the space to wander with the push of a button! The quality is great, including the nice bright line. I can't wait to bring him on more adventures with with this amazing leash!

I love this leash, it’s perfect for my guy who is off leash most of the time on our hikes. It’s easy to wear and quickly clip on if needed during interactions with strangers. Great buy!

I've used this before walking other peoples' dogs, but never had one for myself. Finally have an adventurous dog this will work perfectly for. I'm looking forward to lots of fun hikes without worrying about the leash getting yanked out of my hand.

I was looking for a long lightweight leash for my dog and saw this set up. It has been a game changer on long hikes and walks. Works great and is a great color combo!
