[Dailydrool] walking two dogs

[AnitaW]

I didn't have many problems walking two, so I was dumb enough to add number
three.  Oh, my goodness, three dogs and a poop bag is a nightmare.  I bought
a washable cloth bag (it's really a soft, unstructured purse) with a fairly
long shoulder strap, I sling it around my neck and put the unused and used
poop bags in it.  (And I buy good poop bags, we had a few poop bag
malfunctions while walking when I used grocery bags, and I'm not EVER
dealing with that mess again!!)  Then I have both hands free to juggle three
Flexi leashes.  My hands are in constant motion, but I usually have Holly
and Anna's leashes both together in one hand, and Gracie's leash in the
other hand.  That's because even though Holly and Anna are faster and dash
ahead and side to side, Gracie is my pig-headed problem child, so I need a
dedicated hand to reel her in and make her go where the rest of us are
going.  I have no doubt whatsoever that we look like the 4 Stooges traveling
down the street.

Now that I have two dogs, I'm finding it a bit of a challenge to walk them.
The web has leather couplers, bungee couplers, bungee coupled leashes...and
I'm sure a bunch of other options. What has worked for you?
