What is a hands-free leash? A hands-free leash, often also called a shoulder leash or cross-body leash, is a special dog leash that is worn diagonally across the upper body. Unlike a classic lead, you don't have to hold it in your hand. This makes it the perfect companion for anyone who wants to have their hands free while hiking, running, or on their daily dog walk.
How long should a hands-free leash be? Hands-free leashes are the ultimate all-rounder for anyone who wants to have their hands free while working or hiking. The right length is crucial so that the leash rests comfortably over your shoulder without restricting your dog. A good hands-free leash should be between 200 cm and 250 cm long. Since part of the leash is already needed for your upper body, this length provides enough leeway for your dog to comfortably walk at your heel. Our adjustable dog leash is designed precisely for this, with its maximum length of 250 cm. It offers the perfect range for hands-free use but doesn't compromise on safety: the integrated short lead ensures that you can intervene directly and maintain maximum control at all times, even with the leash around your body. This way, you combine full freedom of movement with the necessary precision for any situation.
