Abstract
A leash device has been devised for use by a person in walking or jogging while leaving both hands free and is made up of a belt encircling the jogger's waist, a suspension ring in outer spaced surrounding relation to the belt and flexibly suspended downwardly and away from the belt so as to loosely encircle the hip region, and a leash extends from the ring for attachment to a dog and has an end connector which is slidable around the full circumferential extent of the ring while being free to rotate about its own axis to avoid twisting or snarling of the leash.
