WACKYwalk’r – The Smarter, Safer Dog Leash

A Better Dog Leash, Born from a Simple Idea
Trusted by Pet Owners Since 2004

At WACKYwalk’r, we believe every dog deserves a walk that’s comfortable, controlled, and fun—for both you and your pup. That belief took shape in the most unexpected place: a local shoe store.

While shopping for winter boots in a local shoe store on a freezing winter day, a simple rubber piece on a pair of flip-flops sparked an idea. What if the same kind of flexible material could be used to create a better dog leash—one that absorbs pulling force and reduces stress on your shoulder and back plus makes it more comfortable for your pup?

As a dog lover walking three energetic pups every day, Our founder knew there had to be a better way. We started experimenting with a stretchable leash design that offered control and comfort. The first version gave dogs a little too much freedom (think: football field). But with a built-in internal line to control the stretch, the leash evolved.

After nine prototypes and plenty of testing, the perfect formula was discovered, and the WACKYwalk’r no-pull leash (a.k.a. The WUNDERleash) was born. Our patented design gently corrects pulling behavior while reducing strain on your arm, shoulder, and back. A revolutionary no-pull dog leash that offers just the right amount of resistance and reward.

Engineered from natural rubber and fitted with an internal safety line to control stretch, it’s the best leash for dogs that pull—praised by trainers, veterinarians, chiropractors, and thousands of happy customers just like you.
