What type of leash?

[GraciesMommy]

Retractable



Non retractable

[BitsyNaceyDog]

I have both kinds but usually use the retractable.

[Cookiebaker]

Both! When we walk on the road, we use non-retractable on both dogs. But when we walk in the woods, Emerson doesn't wear a leash, and Malone is on a retractable (because he tends to run off )

[Cincy'sMom]

We have both, but I only use the retractable when I am walking one dog. Can you image trying to wrstle with 3?

[DogLover9501]

Jasper has a non-retractable leash, all the time, and when we're in the woods he's off leash.

Piddle and Wiggles both have retractable leashes, because theyre easy to controll and they stay in on the side of the road.

Kodie is WAY to strong for a retractible leash,and he's not quite trained well enough to not pull,so he's never off leash except for the backyard,and he's always on a 5 foot regular leash when we go for walks,etc.

[Kfamr]

I use Non-retractable. I don't trust the retractable.

[Aspen and Misty]

I agree with Kay. I use Non-retractable I just don't trust the other kind. I feel like I have no controlle over my dog.

When we are in the woods we use a 25 and 35 foot long lead, that is Non-retractable. it gives them the room to roam and play and I don't have to worry about them getting hurt.

Both. If I'm walking more than one dog, or walking with another person, I use non-retractable. When I'm walking one dog alone, I use retractable.

Both.

Because Kaedyn lunges, I use the non-retractable.

And for Kai, if we walk in the quiet streets, I use the retractable leash since he's good about not pulling on it. On busy streets though, I use the non-retractable since he tends to pull when he gets spooked out.

[KYS]

I have both.
I use the retractable when we are in open areas
such as the park, and in traffic/public areas I use
a 6' leash.

It's easier on me to use the non-retractable. I can wrap it around my wrist, and keep better control. My hands always hurt when I use the retractable. I usually have 2 at a time, and it is tough to use both retractable leads.

When we only had 2 dogs, we used to use the retractable ones all the time. In the winter, when we would be getting ready for walks, we would attach the leash, and then finish getting ready (boots, scarves, hats, gloves, etc). I used to laugh so hard at Abbey and Kito running around dragging the retractable leash behind them!!!

[Amber]

We use the non-retractable kind.

[GoldenRetrLuver]

We have both, but I rarely use the retractable kind.

[Buddy Blaze Lover]

Both...though Blaze prefers the retractable so he can GOOO! lol, of course I keep him under control, but he's never bad about it. I use the tractable when I want to work with him on heeling, etc. He knows when the choke chain/collar comes out that it's time to work!
