Hitch Hiker™ Leash

portable hitch & leash combo

Color

Selected: Slate Blue

The Hitch Hiker is a climbing-inspired adjustable-length leash and hitching system for ultimate connection versatility with your dog on the fly - from the crag to coffee shops and all the paths in between.

The adjustable strap shines equally whether being used as the handle for a hand-held leash, waist belt for a hands-free leash, or wrap for a hitch secured around a single tree or post. And, with 12 feet of rope to work with, you can fluidly shift from long line to short lead and all points in between with the ergonomic HitchLock™ rope adjuster. It's designed for hands-on adjustment that acts as a braking system when the rope is under tension. A durable stow bag keeps rope tails contained, marking its unrivaled portability and utility as a hitch and leash combo.

The Start of A Beautiful Belay-tionship: Much like the climbing gear that inspired the hardware and the mark of a trusted climbing belay partner, human participation is required. While the Hitch Hiker uses an auto-blocking technique to lock the rope under tension, slack must be let out and taken in by hand.

Dimensions: Rope length is 12 ft (3.65m); Stow Bag is 6 x 7 x 2 in (16 x 18.5 x 5 cm), Waist Belt Maximum Length 49"

    Great for training too

    I purchased this for hands free training in a controlled environment and it works well for that. He’s a recent rescue, a big boy, and still learning so we haven’t used it in any other situation. It’s well made though and functions as described. Would recommend.

    Training a new puppy

    Works great. Training a puppy to walk with me. I can let out as much rope as I want and reel him in when needed. The clamp holds when he tries to shoot out to go after squirrels. I would recommend this product.

    Awesome for backpacking

    I love this leash because it lets my dog roam a little more and still be on leash per the rules of many state and county parks!

    Pouch is pleasantly smaller than expected. Glad it was compact and relatively light weight for what it is.

    Best idea

    This is by far the best idea for a leash. Our Golden/Great Pyrenees is 95 lbs and lives the trail, but he’s not dog friendly. With this leash, he gets toes explore more and I’m in complete control! I need the same exact leash but longer!
