    What do you want them for?  Running?  Regular walks?  Biking?

    I looked at the website and can't 'see' it -- but the one I like has a regular leash clip on one end, but on the handle end it has a plastic clip like you'd find on a collar.  So it's fully adjustable -- you can make the 'handle' loop just a regular loop to hold, OR you can adjust it long so it will clip around your waist.
     
    I love them -- you can attach the dog to your ankle if you're sitting or to some THING.  Or your waist or whatever -- it's a 6' leash so it's incredible versatile.  Just a nylon leash -- nothing fancy, but comes in a couple of different widths.

    A month ago, I was in Canine Comissary, a higher end pet food store and saw a guy with a monstrous bull mastiff. His leash turned out to be a big leather loop that he wore diagonally across his chest, like a bandolier. He needed to because he was buying a big bag of dog food.
     
    Or were you thinking of something smaller that attaches to or around you, rather than your hand?

    Ron, I have something like that, I think. It's a leash, a hook on each end and rings in a few positions, so you could clip two dogs, make a short leash or clip around your chest. I want to try a belt style around my waist though. I think that would work better with my golden retriever.
    Also, these things above have an elastic aspect to them , kinda like a shock absorber.So, i'm just wondering how that part of it works.
    I was looking at the pics, looks like plastic hardware, Not sure I like that.
    Thanks for your help everyone!
