Why Choose EzyDog Dog Running Leads?
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use these dog leads for hands-free running?
Yes, our popular Road Runner Lead features a sliding buckle that allows you to extend the handle and wear it securely around your waist. This gives you complete freedom of movement while keeping your dog safely by your side.
How does the lead stop my dog from hurting my shoulder if they pull?
All our running leads utilise our patented Zero Shock™ technology, a bungee system that absorbs the impact of sudden jolts. This cushions the pull for both you and your dog, making your run smoother and more comfortable.
Should I attach the running lead to a collar or a harness?
For safety and unrestricted breathing, we highly recommend attaching your running lead to a dog harness rather than a collar. This ensures any tension is distributed across the chest area, preventing neck injury during faster-paced exercise.
Are these leads visible for night-time running?
Absolutely, every EzyDog running lead is woven with highly visible Reflective Webbing to ensure you stay safe in low-light conditions. This is essential for visibility near roads during early morning or evening runs across the UK.
Is the lead length adjustable for crowded areas like Parkrun?
Yes, the Road Runner Lead's sliding buckle shortens to close-control length for Parkrun start areas and busy pavements, or extends for open paths. Most Parkrun events require dogs on a short lead near the start line, and this adjustment takes under two seconds.
Will the waist belt fit over my running jacket?
The sliding buckle system on our hands-free leads is fully adjustable to accommodate a wide range of waist sizes and clothing layers. Whether you are wearing a light tee or a thick winter coat, you can achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
How do I get quick control if my dog is attached to my waist?
For instant control in traffic or around distractions, all our running leads feature an integrated Traffic Control Handle positioned near the clip. This allows you to quickly grab the lead and hold your dog securely by your side without fumbling with the waist belt.
What is the best harness to use with a running lead?
Pair your running lead with a non-restrictive harness like the Express Harness. Its ergonomic design allows for full shoulder movement, preventing chafing and ensuring a natural stride during your run.
Is this lead suitable for Canicross?
For dedicated Canicross where the dog pulls from the front, you would need a specialist pulling harness and bungee line. However, the Road Runner Lead works well for recreational runners who want a dog running belt with bungee absorption for jogging together at the same pace, which suits most UK runners who run with their dogs rather than being pulled by them.
