Who else likes handsfree?

Anyone else loving walking your dog completely handsfree? I do! I love nothing more than walking in sync and not worrying about letting go of the lead or anything like that, it's just lovely to walk swinging my arms and him keeping pace
Anyone else enjoy doing this or am I just weird? I love my police dog leads, sooo handy!
p.s. sorry for the randomness of this thread!

Me to

I have two of my guys attached to my walking belt when we walk the trails. Arms swinging, the three of us in sync, can't beat it

Take care.

Seoniad.

I would love that, but I'm afraid Boomer just can't be trusted not to chase a cat, dog, car, imaginary object at a moments noticed.

Handsfull all the way for me I'm afraid....

I'd love to hear what you use for hands free walking. As an arthritis (hands) sufferer I would feel much more comfortable with a different contraption..... and I know my dog would be safe!

Please let me know - thanks

I use a police dog style lead, with several d-rings down the lead and a clip at both ends, so I can loop it round my body and he can walk near me safely.

My two pull in opposite directions I could see myself discombobulated if they were attached to a belt

I was just about to say something similar (although admitedly they don't spend an awful lot of time waking by my side when 'hands free')
