i have not tried having a lead as back-up - that might be a good thing, whenever i am using the safety-poppers! good tip,

i actually dont use the poppers I use a double clip benching chain, I hook the hoop on the springer and the two clips at the end of the chain to the D ring on the back of the harness, I WANT my dogs to pull me along lol I dont do any peddling at all the dogs do all the work lol.
heres the chains.
