This is not JUST a leash - this is a leash, a wristlet, a sling. We couldn't just make something that would only take your dog for a walk! This puppy (pun intended) can carry everything you need while walking your dog! The leash itself is a coated webbing material, easy to wash if it gets run through the mud, includes a removable pouch that can hold poop bags, your phone, keys, treats and can be slung around you for easy carry while you give your pup a little leash-free, pee sniffing freedom!
