Top Failures
September 6th - via: kickstarter.com
I was going to make an info graphic of the top failures in Lazy Leash history, but we don’t have any power today. So my chicken-scratch handwriting will have to suffice. What I noticed about all the biggest failures is that they resulted in... (Read More)

August 24th - via: kickstarter.com
The final prototypes are working better than we could have hoped. Strong, durable, and the locking button keeps the leash in place at any length. All of the (most recent) prototypes have been produced with 3D printing the outer case. Injection... (Read More)
