When I went to shop for a new retractable leash for my yorkie after having long thrown out our old one for our late shih-tzu, I noticed they now make retractable "strap" leashes. I chose the cord type again only because the longest length was out of stock for the strap type. I really wanted to try that in case I have to grab onto it for whatever the reason, I figure it might not cause "rope burn" on my hands like the cord type would (I've done it to myself in the past with our Tibetan Spaniel's retractable cord). |
