The Knot-a-Hitch™ is a campsite dog-hitching system designed with car camping in mind. Using climbing-inspired components and intuitive Ruffwear hardware, this system lets your dog safely explore camp while staying on leash. Set it up between two trees or around a single post, then go about camp duties knowing your dog has freedom to roam while staying secure.
The system includes a strong, supple, reflective kernmantle rope and an easy-to-use tensioning system modeled after auto-lock techniques used by rock climbers. A swiveling carabiner keeps your dog’s leash tangle-free as they move. When it’s time to pack up, the rope stows neatly in a durable carry bag that protects from the elements.
Note: The Knot-a-Hitch™ should only be attached to a harness, not a collar.
