Why it matters
A 50 ft vinyl-covered run cable stretches between two anchors and a 10 ft lead slides along it. The shock spring sits on the lead, closer to the dog, and rust-free aviation aluminum clips swivel 360 degrees to prevent tangles. One-year warranty.

Pros and cons
Pros

Cons

Limitations to weigh
- Tie-outs and runners are for supervised time only: attach to a harness, not a collar, keep the run clear of fences, pools, stairs and other dogs, and always leave shade and water within reach.
- Mount runner cables between solid anchors with clearance from branches and fences, and check crimps, clips and springs for wear before each use.
