Please make a version that you can clip to a pack belt, so you don't have to wear an extra belt.

I love it, and the expressions of the dog are hilarious.

I followed the QR code link on the back of the package because I could intuit how it worked, but wasn't sure how you were supposed to put the leash back into the pouch afterwards. It seems like the only way to wind the leash back is removing the whole thing and winding it by hand? Because otherwise it is difficult to push the rope back into the pouch without it running out of room or dropping the rest of the leash out of the pouch. If you don't put it back in the pouch, you just have a loose rope hanging down perfectly to trip on. Please tell me, am I missing something? This seems like your Crag leashes in principle, but by increasing the adjustable lengths for this, the usability has taken a big hit.

Did you find an answer to this?

This seems like an over-engineered system of a simple clippable leash product. Trying to understand the real world benefits of this product

If you don’t understand it, it’s not for you

[@georgeaguirre5437]

I got this because my dog is reactive and I didn’t want to have the risk of her lunging hard enough to pull the leash out of my hand. This leash can be easily pulled in/out as needed, and the rope provided is strong and unlikely to break. The weakest point in this system seems to be the belt clip, which is made of plastic. Otherwise it seems like a solid system. It is pricy, but I wouldn’t call it over-engineered My biggest complaint so far is that I would love to be able to just purchase the clip and rope so I can attach it firmly to a different Fanny pack (which has room for treats and poop bags) so I don’t have to wear what is effectively two Fanny packs. Maybe a better solution for me would be to sew extra packs to the main bag so I can properly carry training treats and poop bags anyway

They don't honor guarantee

[@shirtsoffforkiprusof]

Will we ever see fully metal clips? We had to move away from your product because of a weak point in the plastic clips you use with a large bread hunting dog. That plastic clip isn't strong enough if you cant catch the dog with a woah command in time, and I don't think it would hold up if the dog fell off a ledge.

Fell off a ledge WTF? This is a glorified leash not life safety edge protection.
