Dog Running Belt
The dog waist belt can be used for running, it offers a convenient and hands-free solution for dog owners who want to enjoy their daily jog while keeping their dog safely tethered. This innovative accessory transforms the mundane task of walking the dog into an exhilarating running experience, fostering a sense of teamwork and bonding between the owner and their canine friend.
At its core, the dog waist belt consists of a sturdy yet lightweight adjustable belt that securely wraps around the waist of the runner. Attached to the belt is a dog lead or bungee lead that connects to a harness or collar worn by the dog. This setup allows for a hands-free running experience, freeing the runner’s hands to maintain balance and rhythm without the hassle of holding onto a leash.
One of the primary benefits of using a dog waist belt for running is the enhanced safety it provides for both the owner and their pet. With the leash securely attached to the runner’s waist, there is a reduced risk of the dog darting off unexpectedly or pulling the owner off balance, especially when encountering distractions such as other animals or pedestrians.
Moreover, the waist belt promotes proper running posture and mechanics by encouraging the runner to maintain a steady pace and stride. This can be particularly beneficial for novice runners or those recovering from injuries, as it minimises the risk of overexertion or strain.
Additionally, the hands-free design of the dog waist belt allows for a more enjoyable running experience, as owners can fully immerse themselves in their workout without constantly adjusting their grip on the leash. This freedom enables both the owner and their dog to move more naturally and fluidly, resulting in a smoother and more enjoyable run for both parties.
Furthermore, the dog waist belt can be customised to accommodate dogs of various sizes and breeds, with adjustable straps and leash lengths ensuring a comfortable and secure fit for all. Whether you have a small, energetic terrier or a large, powerful retriever, the dog waist belt provides a versatile solution for running enthusiasts of all kinds.

Great communication, fast delivery. I ordered the walking belt and it’s excellent quality, a strong and heavy duty piece of kit for any dog walker. Very happy
Helen Clark –
This is the second belt I have bought from ghos company. My first lasted so long and basically only needed replacing due to metal fatigue on the adjustable buckle. My dog is a very strong border collie who spins at traffic and lunges. The belt is really well made and strong. I am a textiles teacher so understand the quality of the stitching and assembly.
I have bought a second as it was so good . In my opinion there is nothing else like it on the market.
You will not be disappointed!
Jennifer –
Very pleased – my dog seems to enjoy my using this.
AC –
What a great dog walking belt, deep webbing and designed so there is no strain on the buckle, plenty of adjustment if you have a coat on.
A possible addition could be a couple of loops to attach a treat bag etc, putting it on the lead loops means it is bouncing about all over the place.
AC –
This is an excellent product and feels well made. If you pair it with a carabiner clip you can easily attach leads to it and walk multiple dogs at once. I have an anxious dog that sometimes needs picking up and it allows me to do this while the confident dog walks at my side.
Stephen Clark –
I wanted a broad and very strong belt as my border collie pulls very hard and spins at traffic. This is so perfect. It was a large clasp and the d rings either side of the clasp allow the lead to be attached there taking the pressure off the catch. The fabric is thick and strong and the whole thing is so well made.
I have had a couple before from other places but they were thin and eventually broke. If I could have designed one myself this is what it would be like!!!
Thank you Sarah!!!!
Jean Blackwood –
Have been looking for a (hands free ) dog walking belt for some time now. So glad to have found your site. This walking belt is ideal for walking our very active, very strong labrador. My husband is thrilled with the belt and found that Lexi had some freedom but pulled less. He was finding it difficult holding her on a regular lead. Shall be keeping a note of your site for future requirements. Belt was exactly as described and was dispatched and delivered really quickly with great communication. Thank you so much.
Des Monk –
Very happy with this belt. I have 2 XL Bullys and to say they pull is an understatement, I called Sarah for advice and she said the belt has 2 upgraded bits so they are stronger than ever.
Steph Peters –
We bought 2, one for the car and one for daily use. Would not be without these now!
Bethany Walks Dogs –
Probably one of the best dog walking belts ive ever used, robust and UK made.
Mags Ashbridge –
Just received our dog walking belts, they are absolutely perfect and the quality is amazing.
Thank you very much for sorting them so quickly, I really appreciate it.
Once again, thank you very very much, as you can probably tell I’m extremely happy with them

I have had many, many items from ‘Meg Heath’, the latest being a dog walking belt, and have to say it’s fantastic! I have two female Weimaraners, a petite adult and an almost fully grown pup, and as my older Weim can be reactive to large rattly vehicles it can be quite unpleasant walking along the roads to nearby fields and not something I could do with both of them on my own. I wasn’t sure if a dog walking belt would help, but decided to give it a go….it’s brilliant! I’ve used it four times now, the last being a three mile street walk, during which we encountered several of the things that set her off, and while she still reacted to them I felt much more in control, a definite improvement!
The belt makes it so much easier walking two quite large and very strong dogs at the same time, especially when the phone rings, you want to treat them, or you need to pick up after them. It’s so nice to be able to go ‘hands free’ occasionally! Also there’s less of my stress transferring to the dogs via their leads when I see one of their triggers, which in turn makes them less stressy and reactive! And it’s much better not to be dependent on someone else coming with me, or having to do individual walks!
The belt itself is very well made, as I’ve come to expect! When I ordered it I wasn’t sure whether or not to have it padded, but I didn’t and it definitely doesn’t need it. It’s wide enough so that it’s comfy and doesn’t dig in, even being worn over just a t-shirt, and it’s adjustable and plenty long enough to go over lots of layers depending on the weather! My Weims are walked on double ended leads, also from ‘Meg Heath’, attached to collar and harness, so I thread the leads round the belt rather than attaching to carabiners, which works just as well.
The buckle is very sturdy although I do use a tactical carabiner to join the rings on either side of the buckle together just in case they suddenly decide to go in opposite directions at the same time….I know it’s not going to burst open, but I can worry about anything! Most of the time they walk quite nicely and don’t pull too much, but on the occasions they have I’ve been surprised how steady I feel, I don’t feel like I’m going to be pulled over! All in all I’m very, very pleased with the belt and highly recommend it!!

I’ve been meaning to review for a while but forgot sorry!
I’ve been a dog walker for 12 years and generally my walks are all off lead but when I get the dogs to and from my car the walking belt is invaluable! Very comfy and takes the weight of 4 dogs easily. My only feedback would be that the carabiners/loops might be better on either side of the belt rather than next to each other. That aside it’s fabulous. I tore a shoulder muscle last week and went back to work today. I couldn’t work without this.
I also have always used your boot leads. Durable and super strong to clip to the boot D rings. Keeps the dogs safe and secure especially if they are prone to jumping out the second you open the doors. Only reason I ordered 2 new ones after about 5/6 years was one particular cockerpoo decided to eat them
I no longer walk him thank goodness!!
Love the 2 leads as well as I can put them diagonally across my shoulder and clip the end to the ring on the end! Great design.
I’ve recommended your products to so many people. Thank you Meg. Ten stars!!
Lynne Hoeft –
Hiya, Walking Belt received thank you. Had it on but have not tried 3 dogs yet!!!! Good and wide feels very robust, they will not pull off that!!!¬
Thank you again, Lynne
Mandy Parker –
I bought the dog walking belt with padding because I’m a professional dog walker with a wrist problem. I’m very impressed with the quality of the belt, it’s beautifully made. It’s very comfortable, even when the dogs are pulling and it’s also very easy to adjust with strong Velcro. It’s made my job so much easier and taken the pressure off my wrist. It’s great to be hands-free and makes collecting the dogs together at the end of the walk so much easier. I would definitely recommend this belt to all dog walkers.
Jennie White –
Hello, I have purchased from you the walking belt on invoice #6335. After we had a chat on the phone and you informed me that if I was not happy with the bespoke belt we can arrive at some sort of arrangement. That will not be necessary. I am extremely pleased with the product. It is better than I expected and as I said to you that I was nearly 6ft tall and wanted a belt that would go over numerous layers for dog walking in the winter. As a professional dog walker, this product is astoundingly amazing. I tried it out today with all 4 dogs clipped to the belt and it withstood all four dogs pulling, 3 labs and 1 pointer. I expect that after a week or so they will stop pulling as they will be going nowhere strapped on my belt with nowhere to go! Thank you for a fantastic, solid feeling, great quality product. There is no skimping on the parts making up the belt. Thanks a million. I will be recommending your products to any other walkers who ask me where the belt was sourced. xxx regards Jennie

Hi Sarah,
Sorry did get your email about feedback yesterday or the day before and have been meaning to reply!
Honest review of the walking belt
As a basic entry level walking belt it’s spot on. My ageing staffie who likes to just plod along with the occasional burst of jogging (wouldn’t call it running ha ha ha) it more than does the job, it doesn’t dig in or rub.
But when I’m walking my clients nine month old GSD x Husky X Staffie after five to ten minutes it does dig in and rub on your lower back. She is a puller, full of energy and excitement, the world is still full of wonders and random things for her to explore and sniff out.
I did have a few thoughts that you could do a range of walking belts? The one I bought as your basic entry level walking belt.
Then do two others that are bigger maybe two or three inches deep. One maybe elasticated and the other out of the normal fabric.
Option to purchase a padded sleeve that covers the back part to help protect people’s backs when walking a strong dog or a puller, that could have various things embroidered on to it such as:
“NO DOGS”
“IN TRAINING”
“I NEED SPACE”
“I’M DEAF”
Dog walkers business name or logo/slogan
Dogs name
“SERVICE DOG”
etc etc…
And could even venture in to a Canicross/Bikejoring range as that’s becoming a very popular sport for people with dogs.
Hope this is helpful in someway
Benn
** From Sarah – Hi Benn, Ive marked your review as a 4 star because of your feedback about the belt when using with larger breeds. Talk about food for thought. So I’ve already sent you an email asking if you will test run a 50mm belt for me, I’ll also pad it. All I ask is for more great feedback like this one. Feedback like this helps me improve my products.
To people viewing this review – I have copied Benns email IN FULL and will be trialing a 50mm padded belt next week (commencing 26th Feb 2018).
Val Goff –
Dear Sarah
Love both products.
The walking belt was just what I was looking for. It is very comfortable, easy to attach a lead with the carabiner clip.
Both the leads – great length, light and easy to wipe clean after long muddy walks – and the belt are well made.
Kind regards
Val Goff
