Do you feel anxious while walking your dog? Would a stress-relief leash for owners be useful?
Hey everyone～
I’m a designer currently researching a new product idea
and I’d love to hear real opinions from dog parents.
Thanks for helping out～
We all know that walking the dog should be relaxing and fun, but I wanted to ask:
• Do you sometimes feel anxious or stressed while walking your dog? (e.g. dog pulling hard, sudden lunges, busy traffic, meeting other dogs, etc.)
• Or is life already so stressful that you often feel “I really don’t have the mood or energy to walk the dog today”?
I’m thinking about designing a stress-relief dog leash for owners — something that helps the owner feel calmer and actually enjoy the walk more, instead of adding extra pressure.
What do you think of this kind of design?
• Totally useless?
• Sounds okay but not a must-have?
• Actually useful and you might consider buying one?
Any feedback is welcome! 😂 I’m not selling anything yet, just genuinely curious about how real dog owners feel～
Thank you so much! 🐶
