Freedom Aerial Double Dog Trolley Run Cable 2 Dogs FADR-DD500 (Large Dogs, 50 FT)

I decided to go this route for a temp solution to our unfenced backyard. It is overall cheaper and the results are the dogs can roam seemly free. The product was really simple to install, took about 45 mins total. I was able to secure the cables between two trees running about 130 feet apart and about 8 feet in the air.After all was setup and completed, took my dogs out to test it. They were able to easily move up and down, no tangling what so ever. The pulley system slides with ease, little to no resistance on the line.The product is very durable, not flimsy, with a nice gauge to the wire and all the components are rated beyond the weight capacity for our dogs. That would lead me to believe this thing will be up and running for years to come without issue.I highly recommend this over a traditional tie at the ground level. Ideally you want to position this in an open area where the dogs will not wrap around object. Additionally be careful with being in the "lane" of the dogs. This could easy close line you and or children. That would be my only downside to using this product, however, practice safe precautions and monitor your dog(s) & company.Improvements Made: I've also upgraded this kit. Instead of using the "leash" that comes with the kit, I've removed them and replaced them with a retractable leash. I hook the "handle" of the retractable leash into the carabiner. You just need to make sure the leash is rated for your dogs weight and to be extra safe, go up a size.This does a few things.1. Limits the ability of having excess leash and thus causing issues with tangling up.2. It is also overall safer!3. Much cleaner look!

I'm so glad I bought this aerial run rather than one of the cheaper ones. I periodically attach one or two 70 pound (for now) Great Pyrenees dogs to this run when I can't watch them during the training process to guard my goats. It was easy and quick to install following the excellent instructions, and I am sure it will be strong enough to use when the dogs reach full size of up to 125 pounds if tethering is still necessary then. I actually bought extra eye bolts and another pulley and quick link, then ran the cable in an "L" shape from one tree, around two other trees, then to a fence post, so I have two different areas where I can attach the leads. This still doesn't keep the dogs from tangling themselves up in each other's cables, but it reduces the frequency somewhat, and besides, that's not the product's fault.

THIS CAN KILL YOU DOG! I just untied my dogs from each other. Once they became entangled, they must have panicked. Each was snugly snared to the other. One around the neck and the other around the neck, body, and legs. This took about a half hour, and I came out as soon as the yelping started. I had to struggle to get fingers under the cable around the neck on one and under the many wraps around the other'sI got the heavier rating for my two small dogs. The design is clever, but not clever enough to prevent exactly what you expect.Shame on me for not throwing this away a month after I got it.

The product should be used in yards with no shrubs, flower beds, or trees. My dog gets tangled up on all of my fancy stuff in the yard, the flower beds with the roses for example, and my once beautiful back yard is a mess. I now regret not having the fence fixed to keep him from escaping because it is a pain to have to go out and untangle him24/7 and all of the lovely spots in the yard destroyed.

Awesome Product. Awesome Quality. With the Double Lead the dogs took a little time to figure out how to NOT get Tangled up. However I knew this would happen before I purchased it. This is not something you would keep your dogs on all day. But is Great otherwise. 5 Stars for Quality and Design to fit my needs perfectly.

Quality product!Sturdy, heavy duty, can be used for just 1 dog if the 2nd runner is not needed...that is how I use mine. The second leash is my backup that I could use in the future if the first one breaks for some reason. Lots of pieces and parts t be installed with tools provided. For sure is a 2-person job for best results as the cable is long and heavy.

Straight to the point-This dog run is very well made-It is made with heavy duty hardware designed to last-It can be quite difficult to install yourself if your using the entire length of the run and placing it 12ft off the ground-If you have normal active dogs like I do then the leads will eventually get tangled from time to time-At the end of the day it's a great dog run and probably the best you will find available in today's market.

works great for 110 lb and 88 lb dogs- very strong
