Anyone use/try the hands free leash to walk their dogs?

Drop leg?

Nighttime numbness

So people wake up with numb arms/hands frequently but when your up and starting your day your hands work perfectly fine and you don’t deal with numbness ? I wake up with numb hands a lot and have no symptoms during the day.
