Walking is Ezy with EzyDog Zero Shock Leash


When EzyDog asked me to try their new Zero Shock Leash, I jumped at the chance.  Not because I pull Ma's arm out of its socket EVERY time I walk with her, but because when I see the elusive B-U-N-N-Y in our neighborhood, all bets are off...I can pull with the best of them when I see something good to chase. 




I chose the 48" Zero Shock Leash in Blaze Orange (my favorite color, by the way).  There is also a 25" size for those dogs that prefer a shorter leash.


What is a Zero Shock Leash?
I'm glad you asked!  EzyDog's Zero Shock Leash is designed to reduce the strain and pull on the dog and the owner.  In the center of the leash, there is a shock absorbing area that provides protection from sudden movement by stretching. 


You can kind of see how the EzyDog Zero Shock Leash stretches in this short video.  I noticed that it has a little "bounce back"  as well, which can help "reel me in" from a good pull.


Other Features of EzyDog Zero Shock Leash
Ma really likes the generously-sized Neoprene Handle.  The side that touches her skin is nice and soft and makes for comfortable walking.


Accessory D-ring.  Why doesn't every leash have this?  The D-ring feature is excellent for holding a poop bag dispenser and I imagine it would be great for holding a poop bag holder (like the BagBuddy from PoopBuddy or The Fifth Paw).  Ma really likes that it is away from the handle so when we are walking, the poop bag dispenser isn't knocking into her wrist the whole time.


Traffic Control Handle.  The leash is doubled-up near my harness (or collar) which gives Ma a quick and secure way to grab me when "required" (like when I go into terrierize mode).


Ma-Tested, Oz-Approved
I really like the EzyDog Zero Shock Leash.  I've been using it on my evening walks around the neighborhood (B-U-N-N-Y time) and I know it will be great for my camping and hiking adventures! 
  • The shock absorber will keep me from pulling like a maniac when we first set off on our hikes (I get so excited and I just cannot help myself).
  • The Accessory D-ring is perfect for carrying my poop bag dispenser for picking up any accidents while walking around the campground (and hiking the trails).
  • The Blaze Orange color will allow me to be seen while hiking and walking in the wilderness.

If you tend to pull your parents/owners arm out of its socket while walking, then I totally recommend the EzyDog Zero Shock Leash 
to make your walks together more enjoyable.

    1. Why thank you, Miss Ann! I like the way the orange "jumps off" my furs. BOL It is a cool leash so if you have or know a dog that pulls, this may be a great product for them.

  12. Ding ding ding ding Oz The Great and Powerful you home. Why that leash has a lot of great features. It is kind of like a bungee cord. Why if I fell off of a cliff I would have a soft jerk when I reached the end as long a Lee had a good grip on the handle.
    Thanks for beig my friend

    1. Sir William! So glad to see you, my pal! It is very much like a bungee cord, though I do not believe I will be jumping off any cliffs any time soon. I just don't see your Lee or my Ma having such a grip on the handle. BOL But yes...a soft jerk is all you get. I say it's like a "bounce back".
      Thanks for being MY friend!!

    1. I love the Blaze Orange too, Sugar! So my favorite color! I think I need to get an EzyDog harness. Last night on my walk, I went bonkers and slipped right out of the (cheapo) harness Ma had on me. Not good at all.

  19. Is that an Earth Rated bag holder? We love their holders! I drove all over town a few weeks ago looking for one. (Finally found it at TJ Maxx!) The leash seems so creative too, I love the idea.

    1. It IS an Earth Rated bag holder, but I ran out of Earth Rated bags. BOL The leash is great...my neighbor just commented on how sturdy it was.

  20. OMD, Ma SO needs this one Oz!!!! Why, just today a doggie started barkin' at MOI behind a fence and I went all 'flyin' squirrel dog' on Ma and nearly took her arm with me!! (what can I say...that doggie said I had a fat arse!! I mean, how rude!!) Anyhu, since I loves their harnesses, I thinks I'm gonna put this on Ma's wishlist!!
    Great review!!

    1. Oh Ruby, noooooo! Some doggie said you had a fat arse?!? Oh, if I was there I would've put the bitey on that doggie. You are gorgeous and perfect! Now, about this leash...if you go into terrierize mode as I do, then this should be on Ma's wishlist because it does minimize the shock on her arm. Which harness do you have, Ruby? I am looking at the EzyDog harness and am thinking about puttin' the Chest Plate harness on Ma's wishlist.

  24. We reviewed one of their leashes but it wasn't this one. Mommy really liked the one she reviewed too. They make great leashes!

  25. I had a shock-absorbing handle thing, but mummy said it was like having me on a bungee lead and seemed to encourage me to bounce more than I do normally BOL. But this looks much better than the one we had
