The Windchill Walking Belt clips around the top of the hips for hands-free walking of one or more dogs.  Ideal for walking and hiking with your dog.

The Walking Belt makes it easier to control strong dogs and leaves both hands free to pick up after your dog, to assist your dog if necessary or do other things requiring both hands while maintaining control of your dog.

Windchill walking belts are adjustable and are padded at the back with polar fleece for added comfort.  The belt fastens at the front with a side-release buckle for easy and quick access. They are made from 45 mm (2 inch) webbing with an adjustable clip-on section for attachment of leads.  Can be used with any type of lead.

Both the belt and lead-holding section are adjustable for a perfect fit and comfortable walking. To attach your dog’s lead(s) simply undo the snap hook on the lead-holding section, thread through the handle of your dog’s lead(s) and re-attach the snap hook to the D-ring (as pictured).

Should the belt buckle happen to come undone your dogs are still attached to you.

Tips for Walking Strong Dogs...

Attaching your dog's lead to your walking belt allows you to use the strength of your leg muscles to control your dog.  The walking belt must be worn around the top of the hips, not at the narrowest point of your waist, to minimise the pressure on your back. 

It is advisable to bend your knees slightly so the impact of the pull is taken by your leg muscles rather than your joints.  This also lowers the centre of the point at which your dog is pulling your body, giving you greater stability and reducing the risk of you being pulled off balance.

When walking a dog that pulls hard, getting yourself to the side of your dog, rather than directly behind, will assist in giving you control.  The dog has greatest strength when pulling directly forwards, so introducing a sideways pull on the dog helps give you the advantage and may assist in pulling the dog off balance thereby reducing their pulling power.
