Petmate Large Dog Tieout Cable

Petmate 1700-Pound Break Strength Tieout Cable, 10-FeetWe have two Labs, one around 70 pounds and one around 100. We go back and forth between two houses and wanted to have some tie-outs at each. We had bought two cables at the local supermarket for the same price as these, and they are about twice the thickness and have been trouble-free. We bought two of these, and within a week they are getting kinked. Also, the clips aren't as big and easy to use as the supermarket cables. Disappointing.

I bought two tie-outs for my two 9 month old labs..and they were delivered today..When I hooked them up for the first time, not 2 minutes after attaching the tie-out, one of my puppies was running free..the hook snapped from the tie-out and when I finally caught him, the hook was attached to his collar, and the coating was off of a few spots. A few hours later, I hooked them up again (using the other, non defective tie-out) and that one broke, I chased my other puppy for half an hour, in 10 degree weather, he almost got hit by a car..that tie-out was stripped of it's coating as well...DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I would give this product zero stars..but they wouldn't let me submit a review if I didn't put a star.

I use this tie-out to let me two dogs (60lb and 75lb) answer the call of nature in the back yard IE, both dogs combined, it probably gets used 30 minutes a day. I have purchased this product as follows:

* Feb 17, 2011 (ordered one) lasted nearly a year (good)

* Jan 21, 2012 (ordered one) lasted ~10 months (acceptable)

* Dec 22, 2012 (ordered two) first one lasted ~2 months (yuck.)

It seems like the quality has gone down; in the most recent shipment, the brand is "Aspen Pet" instead of "Petmate".. apparently Aspen Pet is a subsidiary, but these were previously Petmate-branded. I put the new tether out at the end of January; within a month, the nylon already started coming off in places. I looked over the tether today, and there are *many* dings where the bare metal is exposed -after less than two months. Unfortunately Amazon won't accept a return any more; bah!

My dog is a lab/akita X and is a crazy chewing machine! He hasn't conquered this bad boy yetnot for lack of trying! Now they just need to make womens sandals and I'll be set ;-)

This is a great tie out. My dog who likes to chew, tries to chew it up while she's outside but no can do! It also never gets tangled up. I never leave my dog outside unsupervised for more than a few minutes at a time without checking on her but it takes a bit of the worry out that she might get tangled up in it and hurt herself. She has never once gotten tangled in it and I've had it for over a month and she is out on it everyday.
