Leashes are essential in managing your dog, especially when you are out in public places. The retractable leash is one of the most known leashes these days. It has various benefits, and owners prefer it over other leashes. However, some owners still doubt whether it is safe for their pets. Of course, there will still be disadvantaged. Still, in the end, it will depend on how you’re willing to manage these disadvantages. Here are some of the things you should look out for if you are using a retractable leash on your dog:
· Dropping off of the leash. It is normal to slip a leash, especially if you are handling many things simultaneously. However, your dog can be hit by the handle when this happens. In addition to that, he can also grab the opportunity to run away.
· Sudden grabbing of the cord. As much as possible, avoid doing this, especially if the cord is too thin. You can get injured and cut.
· The cord gets wrapped around you. This can be caused by poor handling, especially when it is your first time using a leash. When the cord gets wrapped around your arm, it can cause cuts and burns.
· Breaking of the collar. When the collar breaks, your pet might grab the chance to run. He might get into an accident, especially if you are on the main road.
