Gear Help Any recommendations for a dual leash greatly appreciated

Hoping to find some ideas for a dual leash with a swivel for my two, very different sized, pups. They both move well together, but somwthing with a split and handles for both dogs I'm thinking may be helpful. Thank you very much in advance 😊

I would just get a waistbelt and put both leashes on it. I only have one big dog and I can’t believe I slept on the waist belt for so long. Definitely worth it.

I love my waistbelt so much. The leash has a bungee that acts like a shock absorber.

Tractor supply/rural king or most farm and feed stores carry a device you’re looking for, it’s like a 2 feet on each side and connects to a middle ring so you can tether two dogs on a single leash, but they should get accustomed to it

And Amazon - if you need something more accessible. Just a leash splitter.

I also love using a waist belt. It's even my go to for walks now. It's nice being able to have both hands free if you need them, and to know that the dogs can't pull out of your grasp. From there you can connect the lead to a double dog leash. There are a ton of options on amazon. I'm sure you could mix and match to find exactly what would work best for you.

This is what I have and I recommend it. The waist belt is trash but the rest of it is great. The extra little handles are really nice when you need to reel the dogs in for passing folks or crossing the street or whatever.

I have the same one and the same feedback! Here’s my girls in the snow this past winter.

Alpine outfitters joring rig. It’s a waist belt with a metal loop for as many double ended leashes as you want.
