Stunt Puppy’s Go Dog Glo Stunt Runner Leash ($48)
- Pros: Shine a light on this set up at night, and you and your pup will definitely be seen from a distance—the entire leash and waistband are covered in reflective stitching. The waistband is adjustable to accommodate runners of all sizes or as many layers as you want to pile on. The lower part of the leash is static and can be adjusted in length while the upper, bungee part of the leash absorbs tension from eager pups. The hardware on this leash is so light that it’s hardly noticeable during a run.
- Cons: Although Stunt Puppy says the “floating D-ring on the waist belt keeps your dog in the sweet spot without tugging on the waist belt,” my experience was that the dog actually determines the position of the D ring, which results in the wait belt spinning and tugging, depending on the dog’s direction and momentum.
- Pair it with: The entire chest portion of the super-lightweight Go Dog Glo Harness ($45) is reflective, as is the stitching on the straps. The martingale-style leash attachment on the top of the harness tightens—just a bit—if a dog pulls, signaling to the dog that it’s time to settle down.
