Walking more then one dog...

Have any of you tried those leashes that, like, divide into two so you can easily walk two dogs? Do you think it is easier?

You mean a splitter? I use it and I swear it's sent from heaven! :D

I know them as coupling leads, yes I have one, they are very nice. The local 4-h cub has a obedence show at the fair each year and they have a coupling section were the kids show two dogs at once. Its very fun to watch.

I use a coupler when biking with Happy and Misty together, that is about the only time I have Happy on a leash, having them on the coupler makes it easier to keep track of both at once, and because Happy does not pull, it lessens the strain.

I had to use this type of leash one day when a friend's Aunt suddenly passed away. She asked if I could walk her dogs. I used the double leash because I thought it would be easier. Technically, it is - the leash didn't get tangled up. However, when one dog went to poop or pee, the other dog pulled making the pooping/peeing dog lose it's balance and/or not finish what it was doing. I didn't realize that would happen. I told my friend about it and she said it happens all the time and she tries not to use that type of leash too much.

I have one, they work well as long as the dogs can stand going to same pace so one isn't choking the other to death

Thanks for the replies. If I can find one I might try it out.
