RIGBY—Thomas Nelson was tired of his hand getting crushed and the constant tug and pull every time he took his labrador for a walk, so he created a special leash to solve that problem.
The 39-year-old Rigby man launched his hands-free dog leash in February. It comes in blue or black and is designed to give the pet owner a little more control. It has a solid handle with an adjustable strap to wrap it around your waist. A built-in bungee feature on the end absorbs the shock from your dog’s tugging and pulling so you don’t feel it.
“The buckle was hand-picked so that when you pull, it (the leash) can tighten. But if you’re wearing it, it won’t cinch up on you,” Nelson tells EastIdahoNews.com. “There’s a carabiner-style clasp at the end, so it just snaps onto the collar. It has a lock on it, too, so the dog doesn’t get loose.”
The leash stretches up to 9 feet and has reflective strips on it for walking at night. See what it’s like in the video above.
