Our favorite leashes
We love these leashes and use them for both our Husky, and our Australian Shepherd. It’s thicker than any other leash I’ve found, so it helps me keep a good grip and stay sturdy when they try to pull me. I also like that it’s 6ft because lately at the stores I’m only finding 4ft

EMMA THE HUSKY
I love this leash so much! I still use this leash after 5 years. Its strong and durable! My husky is 70lbs! I like the thickness of the leash because I am able to have a good grip whenever she decides to start pulling on me.

Most Comfortable and Sturdy Leash
Love this leash and is invaluable for our strong 70lb pack leader 🙂 And super comfortable for us bigger hoomans. Our second leash as they do stretch a little but only after more than a year of constant tension and tugging!
Would love a reflective version as there doesn’t seem to be a 2/3″ / 17mm reflective rope leash available anywhere.

Leash Clasps
I purchased two leashes about 5-6 years ago and they are by far the most comfortable leashes I’ve ever purchased and used. Problem is the clasps broke on both leashes. I reached out to ZP and they gladly offered to send me one new leash. I think this is great customer service since I have had the leashes for so long. I accepted the free leash and purchased a second one. Now I’m reading that the clasps are an issue with their leashes. They should probably get a new partner for the clasps. Even though, I’ll give them 5 stars for the leashes holding up and for their Customer Service.

love this leash!!
my dog is 7 human years old and i love him to death!! i found these zippy paw leashes and bought him one about 6 years ago… and it is the best! unfortunately, someone else realized how great the leash was and they stole it!! I am here purchasing a replacement today! might get a matching collar too! i never had an issue with it at all. i wash it about once a month and air dry it, not one singe fray or broken latch… in my opinion, zippy paws makes the best leash ever!!

So durable!
We love this new leash and are so happy with it overall. It’s incredibly durable, even if our pup is pulling. The color is so bright and cheerful and I love how soft it is to hold in your hand while you’re walking. Very lightweight, as well. So happy with this purchase!

Best leash to walk multiple dogs
This is my go to leash to walk my three dogs. The thick rope makes it easier to handle multiple leashes. Using other leashes is more frustrating when the leashes get tangled. I think the feel of the thick rope is less rougher on your hands as well.

Hiking with two large dogs
I came across this leash at a Marshall’s store and have it try after being very frustrated with leashes I bought at other box stores. Zippy Paws , 6 ft climbing leash has out lasted every single leash I’ve ever had. I have one pot bull mix and a strong red healer mix. Walking both takes some strength but using this leash has made our hikes easier! I’m 5’5”, 180lbs and pretty strong but having to hold back two strong dogs as a deer leaps by or a squirrel, it can be a bit much. Thankfully, these leashes are strong enough to hold them back, giving me slack to pull them back as we hike and the ability to let them have freedom.

I loved this leash but after about a year the clip started randomly un-clipping on our walks. My pup wasn’t even pulling, just walking right at my side on loose leash and all of a sudden the clip just falls undone when it seemed to be working fine. Very dangerous especially since I live in the city and she could get hit by a car. I really hoped for more than 1 year of use out of this given its allegedly durable design. If it had a more reliable clasp, I would probably give it 5 stars.

My favorite Leash!
I’ve been purchasing this Climber leash for 2 years now, have one in 3 different colors! By far its my favorite best leash I’ve used and the only one that makes me feel like it’s securely holds my 90lb German Shepard. I did have one that broke but that was because my husband left it on the ground and my Boxer got ahold of it as a puppy and chewed it up!
Never had an issue with the leash.

Could be 5 stars with a new clasp
I have had this leash for 5 months. I don’t use it exclusively but it is my favorite leash. The rope softened up and feels great in my hands – it’s not heavy for the dog. I love it. Until the clasp began simply unhooking while we were on walks. At first I thought this was user error – but the leash had been attached to the collar which is what goes on/off the dog at walk time. Finally I read other reviews and learned this is a serious design flaw! Zippy Paws – make this right before someone’s loved one gets lost or worse!
Edison is deaf – so the fact that I was able to stop him and reattach his leash is a HUGE accomplishment. This could’ve ended so much worse.

Loved but....It did break, and so changed rating big time
We loved this leash, until tonight. We have had it about 2 years, but the way it broke was suddenly on a leisurely walk the leash hit ground and our dog was free- not realizing he was, and we had no idea what just happened. Had this been a year ago when we rescued him as a frightened dog on death row for space at a kill shelter for 8 days, this story wouldnt be so calmly ending. So, just want to make others aware to maybe check it? No idea. I did contact company. They were nice and responded quickly. They admitted was a defect, but way past warranty. 15% discount wasn’t enough for me to place an order. We do love the poop bag holder that goes with it too- best set up we have had until tonight. Just grateful we were on a dead end, quiet walk tonight..because we are surrounded by busy streets and ignorant and lawless drivers. Sad thing, I will pull out my trusty 14 year old flat nylon leash- have 2 still going strong. ( This ZippyPaw Leash was 1st leash hubby picked over these old ones!)

Well, you did, after all, have it for two years. It was bound to wear out.
This leash is, by far, one of the most superiror products on the market.

I completely disagree with James’s comment that the leash was bound to wear out after 2 years. This is not a pair of underwear or socks! These leashes should easily last 15-20 years if made with quality clasps. I have two 80lb Labradors and both are walked with zippy paws climber leashes. The large diameter rope is very comfortable to handle/hold over the old school flat nylon leash. A little back ground, we own two of these leashes purchased two years apart. One leash is about 7yrs old that we purchased when our first Lab was a pup and is still holding up strong. Our second lab is 2 years younger and his leash just broke after 4yrs of use. I will say this with complete confidence, the materials used in the 7yr old leash are superior over the newer 4yr old leash. The 4yr old leash broke at the metal clasp, which is a different clasp from the clip pictured in the leash for sale now. The clasp fractured and was not a wear and tear issue. This failure is an internal fault in the type of metal used and not at the spindle part. I have lost confidence that the Zippy Paw leash is a quality rugged product. Sad, because we love the leash but cannot put our Labs in harms way that the leash at any moment could fail.

Did this company ever address the clap issue? I want to purchase this leash but now feel a bit apprehensive. A metal clasp should last well over 2 years. 10-15 at minimum if you ask me.

Great Pyrenees Puppy 50 lbs. and PyreDoodle 8 Months 80 lbs. – These Leashes are the ABSOLUTE BEST! Great Material Quality and Build. Saves my hands! Great gripping.
They both know what it is on sight and wait to be hooked up. Only thing I wish for is that a longer leash will be made available. A training length would be a great product too. I LOVE THESE LEASHES!
