Another "retractable" caution .... Patrick, Toto & I were leaving PetSmart one late afternoon. As we were about to back out of the parking space, we were looking around for cars coming in, pedestrians, etc. I noticed a man walking with a retractable leash in his hand and as dog lovers do, looked to see his dog and didn't see one. When I realized what was happening, I screamed for Patrick to stop! Evidently the idiot had just bought the leash and attached the dog to it ... walked outside the store and let it full out!! The dog was right
behind us!!! I still shudder to think what could have happened. The man looked very embarrassed, as he should have been. Sooooo .... please practice in a safe place with your pet before using one of these leashes.
