  • Chic, modern color palette
  • Waterproof, wipe-clean materials
  • Soft, cushioned harness construction
  • Versatile leash length options
  • Inconsistent harness fit, loosening
  • Heavy, uncomfortable leash handle
  • Fragile poop bags and holder
  • Chipping hardware coating durability

Wild One earns mixed reviews: the brand delivers stylish, easy-to-clean leashes, bowls, toys, and soft harnesses that many find durable and comfortable, yet recurring complaints flag harness fit/loosening, heavy or awkward hardware, fragile poop bags and holders, and occasional leash/hardware failures. Reviews praise the chic colorways, waterproof wipe-clean materials, multiple leash lengths and front-clip control, and travel carriers/bowls, but note inconsistent durability, sizing quirks for certain breeds, and some products feeling flimsy or unsafe for strong pullers.

  • The Wild One leash is by far my favorite leash! It was multiple length options as well as clips on both ends so you can tether your dog easier if needed. The material also stays clean and doesn't absorb liquid. Great product!

  • This is a great walk kit! It looks great, seems very comfortable and is easy to put on and take off. I wish more color options were available at Kohl's. There were only two colors options. Overall, the quality is excellent.

  • Super cute and high quality dog items. I love the simple modern but classy look of everything. The harness was perfect for our dog. The doggy bag looks chic. The leash is durable for our larger breed dog.

  • Very fashionable and cute leash and accessories. It is also waterproof but due to it being summer right now I won’t be able to say if the coating will rub off. lastly, the leash is a bit shorter than I’d like. I hope to update my review after seasonal use as I’ve only been using it about a week now.

  • When I first saw the Wild One Walk Kit, I knew I wanted a set for my little fur-baby. He has a similar one from Boots & Barkley that I purchased at Target (will get back to that comparison in a bit). A few things I loved: I think it's a beautiful Navy color on my dog. The harness feels soft and nice. The leash can be made to be long or short, and is easy to clean because it's not fabric. The poop bag seems to be made out of the same material as the leash, which is a nice material that feels expensive. Now on to some things I didn't like about this Walk Kit. The harness has these 3 Leash-Attachment Points in the front and back that is made out of plastic! SERIOUSLY?? PLASTIC? I have a small dog so I'm not concern with it too much but I would rethink this purchase if I had a dog that likes to tug or is a medium to large sized dog. I hope they would redesign it into a metal or something more sturdier. Another thing I didn't like, the poop bag doesn't have a clip, it's a string that you'l have to wrap around the leash or hold on to it and it's a pretty big poop bag too. In comparison to the Target version I had, to be frank, the Boots & Barkley one is WAY better and priced way below and more affordable at under $15 for a harness that has a metal 3 Leash-Attachment Point. It also feels more expensive. Of course I would still use this Wild One Walk Kit, it is a beautiful set but could have more work done to it to make it even better!

  • I loved the material of the leash. It makes it very easy to clean with wipes. The poop bag has an easy screw bottom. I wish the color was more accurate to the stock photos. It unfortunately is faded more than the bold color in the photo. The sizing for the harness is much smaller than you expect and listed on the description. I have a 63 pound dog and purchased the Large harness. The XL one is the correct size.

  • This is one of the -if not THE - best quality walk sets I’ve experienced. I love how the options match so nicely, in a really beautiful and deep blue. The harness has excellent cushioning without being bulky, yet seems breathable. The leash has two length options, which is such a lifesaver in crowded areas. Best of all, each (we got the harness, leash and poo bag carrier) piece is easy to clean, ESPECIALLY the leash and bag carrier. edit: added s to set

  • The Best Pet Carrier Ideal for toting my 10lb pup daily, be it for al fresco dining or subway commutes! Made from recycled water bottles, I feel good about my purchase and even better that it has lasted me over two years so far. I use this bag for everything and it can hold everything, too, with pockets inside & out.

  • Overall like their products aesthetically. Quality is just okay.

  • This product comes with a liability that's hard to ignore. While it initially boasts a one-year warranty, Wild One's support drops significantly after that. Imagine walking your dog on the street, and suddenly, the leash breaks, risking your pet's safety. I've had two Wild One leashes, and both broke, one just over two years and the other in less than two years. My dog is only 16 pounds, and in both cases, the leash failed at unexpected moments, putting my dog in danger. When I reached out to complain, their response was underwhelming. The first time, I got a casual "thanks for the heads up," and the second time, they offered a discount on a future purchase, claiming it was out of warranty. There are products out there with same features that last over five years and cost less. While Wild One may tout its waterproof and smell-proof features, it's clear to me that durability should be their top priority. For me, it's goodbye to Wild One.

  • On one side they feel fragile, but the reality is that they are strong enough and durable, so we cannot judge them by their appearances

  • Crap customer service. I like to do business with companies that actually try to help customers and provide solutions, not retailers that have customer service reps who blindly policy push and recite online FAQs - and have zero interest/ability to help. Wildone unfortunately is the latter. They won't be getting any more of my business (and I'm a big spender). They are in a highly saturated market with plenty of small business start ups that have excellent customer service. Wildone is a definite no for me. I don't give companies with crap customer relations my hard earned money.

  • Big fan of Wild One. I have seven pieces (the Collar Walk & Play Kit + the Harness), and am also signed up for their Poop Bags subscription. The leash is super durable, so easy to clean—as is the collar—and is very easy to wrap around your hand if you ever need to quickly shorten your pup's range. The harness is also great; love that it has two different hooks depending on where your dog needs the most control. The coating of the poop bag carrier has begun to peel but that doesn't affect its utility of course. Altogether, the whole set makes my pup look very chic and gentlemanly lol On to the Toys: I love the Bolt Bite but have struggled to figure out what kinds of treats to put in there; its cavity runs pretty deep so I'm always worried I'll stuff something in there that me nor the dog will be able to retrieve again. Our pup's not much of a tug-of-war player, so the Triangle Tug didn't get much use in our house; he's a nibbler though and it seemed he was able to fray the cotton pretty quickly. All that being said, the Twist Toss toy has become our favorite and most used. I love that it bounces in unpredictable directions (which keeps the pup alert) and that it's dishwasher safe!

  • I love this brand! I bought the purple harness and its very nice quality and the perfect color.

  • Aesthetically awesome, functionally awful. Misleading listings and photos on their website led me to purchase a harness that my dog hates! If the neck had snap buckles this would be a great harness, but asphyxiating my chiweenie to put the harness on is not my prerogative. Very disappointing design.

  • Absolutely love my kit from WildOne. I've had it for 2 years now and I always go back to it every time I try new ones. It's super cute as well and makes my fur baby look chic.

    It would be perfect if the harness/leash could take on stronger/larger breeds. I have a boxer who I'd love to purchase this for but unfortunately I don't think it can withold the weight.
