US 5,632,234 A · Two-pet leash

Abstract

A two-pet leash that permits two pets, such as dogs, to be walked simultaneously. The two-pet leash of the invention resists tangling and is continuously adjustable. The two-pet leash includes three main components: a handle, a pulley attached to the handle by a swivel, and an elongated, flexible pet lead running through the pulley. In turn, the pet lead includes a first end section for attachment to a first pet, a second end section for attachment to a second pet, and a middle section that runs through the pulley. Stops between each end section and the middle section prevent the end sections from being pulled through the pulley. In the preferred embodiment, the pet lead is formed from a single, elongated length of material. In a second embodiment, the pet lead is formed from distinct, separate lengths of material so that the leash can be converted into two separate single-pet leashes.
