We just adopted a maltese/terrier mix who is an escape artist. We've fixed our fence and are very happy with the fix. However recently I had his leash wrapped around my wrist and he saw a squirrel and bolted. Obviously I did not have a tight hold and the leash pulled right off my wrist (yes, it was wrapped also). He was gone in a flash. He's lightning fast. Only because he's very friendly and ran right into a photo shoot (I was running and screaming "catch the dog") that a man reached down and grabbed the leash. I'm thinking of something that I can attach to the leash and maybe some sort of bracelet on my wrist as double protection. NOTE: I don't know how to change the comment identifying name.

Very nerve wracking to say the least. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much. I feel like you saved my dog.

We use prong collars for our wire fox terriers who can get a bit difficult to handle when excited. Somehow the clasp opens and they are loose! We live in a city and that is so scary! Luckily they are trained well enoug to stay and come. This looks like the perfect solution. I'm ordering today.

If you are going to get ones like the blue ones, get them from a mountain climbing supplier.

The other time the buckle on the regular collar broke. No problems either time, thankfully, my pups were just horsing around with each other and pulling hard on the leashes, but I've had a couple "close calls" being surprised by dogs behind fences, etc...<br /><br />So I've added one more "step" to your suggestion that I thought I'd share - I add a short bit of strap, lease, etc to the dog's regular collar as well as the training collar or walking harness, just in case on of those fail. The carabiner is great, but if the buckle on the collar breaks it won't help. Having a backup collar is my preference, especially with my pits because they'll take the blame no matter what happens...<br /><br />great page, thanks for all you guys do!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17201523142078213993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737245835800971675.post-67487103521389502522012-07-17T19:31:24.871-07:002012-07-17T19:31:24.871-07:00OMG bless you!

Just the other day, I was in the petstore with our min pin (newest rescue addition to our family, and still working out her nerves), and I have no idea how it happened...suddenly, the hook was not on the collar. She wasn't even pulling at the time, really, or twisted up, it must have been hanging on by a thread for some time. Luckily I was already bending down to look at some item or other and she never even knew she was loose.<br /><br />This is a dog known by breed and personality as an escape artist...literally...her first day with us she got out of a bad harness that she'd come with that I didn't realize was loose, and spent a week and day on the streets before we could recover her. Then she got out of a crack in the gate of the fence at the dog park (and I am in agreement with you on your other post, about dog parks, NEVER again, we're securely fencing in our yard and the dogs will play there, they only care about each other anyway). It took us a half hour of patient wrangling to get her back at the dog park parking lot...all with a busy street nearby...<br /><br />Anyway, I was having flashbacks from those incidents at the petstore. This whole week I've been walking her gingerly, totally paranoid. I am so going to run out TOMORROW and buy some of these...for both of my babies!!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09393470871532411277noreply@blogger.com
