You would be better off to buy the hardware to make your own. You will want coated cable, a pulley, cable clamps, swivel snaps and eye bolts.

It might come with the stake to go in the ground as well, but you can just take it off that. All my neighbors in my old apartment complex used to connect one end to the building, and one to a tree, then attatched another cable to that and clipped it to the dogs collar. They had about fifteen feet either way, and could run back and forth across the 'yard' and never run into each other. It worked great, and one of them was a huge dane mix! A friend of mine used these tie outs for her husky, Who could chew through absolutely everything. It was wrapped around a tree in a way she could run in circles, and get all over the yard.(i'm not sure how she managed that) She would chew and tug and pull and never got loose--Unless she broke her collar.

If your property is "open", then your best bet is to fence it. You should NEVER leave a dog unattended on a tie-out or cable run, especially all day long while you’re at work!
