Most of the reviews I've read on the hands free leashes pertain to larger dogs. I have a 7lb Chihuahua and 20lb Boston Bull/Pug mix. I'd like one for walking these 2 pups hands free. Any suggestions?

It will work for you just make sure you order the small extend-a-buddy part. This is a 3/4" nylon extension for the leadsextends from 18" TO 36", because the shorter.

This is the regular dog system. The buddy system also comes in the "small dog system" which is great for smaller dogs. You will also need to purchase the "extra buddy" in order to attach 2 dogs at once. Hope this helps!

I have a Belgian Malnois. He is about 75lbs. I use the leash for tracking and training and haven't had any issues. This leash is not for tie out because they could easily chew through it.

Actually, I don't have experience with smaller dogs, I've always had big dogs. But I don't think so. Your dog should have more or less the same size and weight of a regular baby. And unless your pet is really easygoing, I don't think it would be so comfortable for him walking arround in this position. I think those special bags for dogs, which look like a handbag, would be more apropriate. Hope I've helped....

The dogs can learn to discriminate who's collar is beeping because the beep is quite quiet unless it's right by their ears. That being said, the leash is NOT IDEAL for multi-dog walks. I do not recommend walking two simpleLeash dogs with one hand, because if one dog stops to pee and the other doesn't notice and continues walking, soon both collars will be beeping, which can cause undue harm to them if they don't react quickly enough. Walking two simpleLeash dogs with two seperate hands is much better because you can move your arms to give the dogs a little more time to react, accidental shocks occur less often. I believe that the dogs could get accustommed to always being on their toes and listening carefully and watching the other dog carefully, but that kind of walk is not great for the dogs. Two seperate walkers is best because if the dogs pull in opposite directions, there is no problem. Even then, your dogs may sometimes get tangled up and you'll have to scramble to untangle before they pull too hard. This is a worse situation when only one of the dogs is on the simpleLeash, because only one hears the warning beep and the other, oblivious, might continue to pull. If you frequently have multiple dogs on a walk, a remote shock collar might be better for you.

I actually recently found a new harness that I like better than the EZ Walk - it's called the Freedom No Pull Harness. There is a leash you can buy with it that has two straps - so one hooks on the chest and one hooks on the back. That way you have dual control with your lab puppy's pulling. One thing I love about it is that the straps that go under the "armpits" of the dog are lined in swiss velvet so = no chafing. They recommend the medium for 50 pounds, but since it's a lab and will continue growing, I would go with the large. That's what I have for my golden retriever. Good luck!!

What if it was a charging lab or boxer? Why would a pit bull be your only concern, especially since most are sweet, wonderful dogs, and any off leash dog can be an issue. Seems like discrimination against one breed. I hope you have it when your neighbors chihuahua gets loose, those dogs pack a mean bite!

The sizing has to do with the weight of your dog. The larger has a heavier gauge retractable cord to securely hold your dog. I have only seen and used one standard handle size.

I purchased a "small" for my 8 pound Silky Terrier. It fit relatively well for that size/weight. However, she was very bothered by the straps around her back legs/groin area and wouldn't walk. When I pulled on leash, her back end went right up in the air...so did not work out for us. A larger, heavier dog will likely be more adaptable to this style. Good luck.

Yes. My dog used to take me for walks, LOL. At first he would still try to walk me but after switching to this collar it has stopped his pulling considerably. The thing I love most about this collar is that it does not tighten to a full choke like a choker collar does. It tightens enough to stop my dog from pulling but does not choke him. I have a 70+ pound American Pit Bull Terrier and there is no way he is going to slip out of this collar which was my main reason for purchasing this collar. Hope this helps!

My dogs are small (6 lbs. 13 lbs) But when the little one pulls on the leash I hold the middle section between the two leashes and ithelps with the pulling. This leash is really a great one as it doesn't tangle and it's heavy duty. (just watch them as sometimes my dogs will go around you which can trip you) But, I think it should hold your dogs.

Hi! Sorry? Just saw this from yesterday right now. I got it large for my 34 pound mixed breed, and I wouldn't get it any smaller. So, definitely go with the large? Also, I actually looked at a YouTube because I couldn't figure out how to put it on.mi'm not stupid, just too impatient to read directions so I exhaust myself! Lol. It's a great thing. She walks so much better! Good luck!

I think the easy walk gives some sizes by weight. I have a 50 lb 10 month old Border Collie he is about as tall as a Lab, I think the medium size would be good if your lab is a bit on the small size. My Border Collie is on the bigger size so I bet that would work for you. Check the site and in the description there was a weight guideline I think. Good Luck you should love this harness. I won't use anything else.

I have 3 Weimaraners -2 are 62# and one 85#. The way this works is exaactly the way people at the dog shows showing mr to wrap my regular leash. Its easier when the leash does it without wrappaing. Yes it does work. I feel I have more control of surprises which may occur on our walks. I like the leashes.

I broke the front tire on mine with a 20 lb pug and a 7 lb bichon. I was in New Orleans on cobblestone roads, so that may have been most of the issue. Lol. Overall, I've had both dogs in this stroller many times with no issue on weight, but only 1 can ride in the front. My bichon was always pushed to the back by her cousin the pug. You may want to consider a wider stroller for 3 dogs, even if they are individually smallish.

I walk an 85 lb shepherd with no problems. Not sure about 3 though. I love having hands free to clicker train and having full motion means we can walk faster. Love mine v

The X-Small may be too small. You may need a larger unit. My chihuahua was less than 5 pounds and it was too heavy for him. He was 17. The unit was very well made and I kept it in case I ever came across someone who may need it, but my dog never used it. He was just way too little. If your dog is strong, which 25 pounds sounds like he can handle the weight, the unit is very sturdy. I hope this helps. Good luck.
