Strategist writer Brenley Goertzen first tested this Wild One leash while walking her 50-pound Aussie mix, Shea. She “appreciates that the fully coated exterior makes it easy to wipe down, so it’s never soggy or smelly after snowy jaunts. The rubberlike surface also feels soft and easy to grip, even when I’m wearing a pair of mittens.”
It’s nice-looking too. Renaldo Webb, the founder of fresh-cooked pet-food company PetPlate, says that this is “the cool leash that you see walking around in Soho.” Available in two lengths, the leash strap is made from flex-poly, an all-weather material that deters water damage, and coated-carbon-steel D-rings prevent metal rattling, so there’s no clanging during walks. The snap hooks on either end make it adjustable with the option to shorten it for training purposes or to secure it around your waist. The brand also offers a detachable poop-bag carrier as an add-on. Get it for the person who just got a puppy — Goertzen is now considering adding another to her cart for her new basset hound pup.
