Review on XiaZ Dog Tie Out Cable: 100ft Heavy-Duty Trolley Runner for Dogs up to 250lbs - Ideal for Yard, Camping, and Outdoor Adventures, Includes 8ft Bungee Runner and Tree-Friendly Cable Sling by Mary Freedom

This set has a lot of potential. The cable is great and very durable. Especially for the price. Most of what you get in this set is very high quality and looks like it will last a long time. However, as you can see from the many negative reviews, the weak point of this set lies in the screw hooks. The cable is capable of supporting hundreds of pounds of weight. The bracket is also very strong. So when you pull on the cable with a turnbuckle and put many pounds of force on the weak and miserable hooks, they just can't take the stress and they bend straight. Luckily I was able to see this in other reviews beforehand. So I didn't even try to use them. When the kit arrived I went to the local hardware store and bought some very strong eyebolts that could take all the pressure from that thick cable and turnbuckle. After installing these eyebolts, one in oak and one in an 8x8 post attached to my porch, I was able to use a turnbuckle to tighten the cord and there was no problem. I bought this set because my dog kept running and injured himself due to the lack of a fence. He was a drifter who migrated after Hurricane Michael and has lived in our home ever since. it has cost me about $2,000 in vet bills over the past year and a half. That's a lot of money for a free dog! Most recently, he was on the road and was hit by a car. We had to rush him to the vet, which alone cost $1,500. I still can't afford a fence so this was the best way out. For less than $100, I could guarantee he wouldn't run away and get hurt again. So if you're a bit savvy and can go to a hardware store and buy some very strong mounting hardware, you can't beat this set for the money.
