Fashion&cool Bungee Dog Leash, locking carabiner, for large dogs

Walk a dog that pulls on this bungee leash: the orange nylon webbing stretches from 4 to 6 ft as the dog moves away, and a metal carabiner with a sliding lock sleeve attaches it to a collar or harness. Two padded handles give the handler a choice of grip points on the walk.

Does this leash suit your dog and your car?

The maker rates the leash for dogs up to 150 lbs. The clasp is a carabiner rather than a snap hook, so the collar or harness you use needs a metal ring the carabiner can pass through and close on. Check the seatbelt receiver in your car before relying on the buckle: the built-in buckle is made to click into a standard seatbelt receiver.

The stretched length is 6 ft and the relaxed length is 4 ft, while the maker also gives a working range of 3.6 to 4.7 ft. The traffic handle sits 18 inches from the clasp, which places it close to the dog when you need a shorter hold.

The stretch, the carabiner and the two handles

The bungee section runs from 4 ft to 6 ft, so the leash gives length as the dog moves ahead and takes it back when the dog returns. Nylon webbing with reinforced stitching forms the strap, and the metal hardware is described as rust-proof.

• The carabiner has a sliding lock sleeve that stays shut until you move it by hand.
• A 360° swivel at the clasp keeps the leash from twisting as the dog turns.
• One padded handle sits 18 inches from the clasp as a traffic handle.
• The second padded handle is at the far end of the leash.
• Reflective stitching runs along the strap for visibility in low light.
• A seatbelt buckle on the leash clicks into the car's seatbelt receiver.

How to attach and use the leash

Clip the carabiner onto the ring of a collar or harness, then slide the lock sleeve over the gate; it holds the gate closed until you slide it back by hand. Hold the end handle for a full-length walk, or take the traffic handle 18 inches from the clasp when you want the dog closer.

For car travel, click the seatbelt buckle into the seatbelt receiver.
