Consumer Reports (http://www.consumerreports.org/) came out with a warning today about retractable leash warnings for consumers and their pets.While retractable leashes are a favorite among many dog owners, my personal choice for my therapy dogs is using a standard 6ft long leash. If you use a retractable leash or are thinking about getting one, do your homework first. Many of the manufacturers print warning labels on their leashes or post the warnings on their website. As a good consumer, you should be informed of potential problems before you buy.
Here's the Consumer Report's Article on their blog:
