Adjustable Length Leashes What would you think about an adjustable leash -- one that would adjust from the standard 6' length down to about 3 1/2'. I am considering replacing the leash that I am currently making with adjustable ones and wanted to get some feedback before I made that switch. Any input would be appreicated. :thumbup: ADMIN -- THANK YOU FOR THIS FORUM! What a GREAT way for us to get "helpful hints" regarding our products! :thumbup: |
I think adjustable leashes would be awesome! |
Do you have a pic to show us all what it would be like????? How would it adjust? It sounds like a good idea but I am a VISUAL person.... :D |
adjustable leashes Well, I think they are great...in a park or safe open space. Be very careful when there could be a dangerous situation for your little one and you need to pull him out of harm's way! Otherwise, it's great for games of fetch and exercise! Good luck! (Sorry, I'm bit of a paranoid Yorkie Mommy. I've lost 2 yorkies(as a child) to hit-and-run!) |
I like the idea.....I would like to see and hear about how it would work. Cindy, you are always coming up with GREAT things!! :justahug: |
I like short leashes myself. I wouldn't want one that's over 4' long since I like my dogs to be at my side when walking and not scouting out up front and back and forth. ;) I do like a really good swivel on the leash so it doesn't end up looking like a cork-screw. :p |
I have an adjustable leash like what you're describing and I love it for traveling. I can keep him very close and predictable in new places and sitches and let it out when we are in our familer stomping grounds. |
I think that would be great! I always have used a retractable because I'm short, so regular leashes have always been too long for me to comfortably use. |
I would really like an adjustable leash. I think it would be great for training purposes. |
Sounds like a great idea to me. |
hey Cindy! If you need a "guinea pig"... lemme know.... that sounds neat! d |
Oh Cindy, I seriously would LOVE this!! It is actually so weird that I stumbled upon this thread because I was thinking of this JUST YESTERDAY while I was walking the babies. I do use the retractable leashes - but not around here when I take the babies for a walk around the neighborhood - since we are on the sidewalks and all...I am just scared that they could get too close to the street. Anyway, since my babies are small (Tate especially!) I would really like having the option of shortening the leash so that it doesn't hang down so much as I have nearly almost tripped on the leashes before :eek: Not referring to YOUR leashes specifically, but just all leashes in general. I really, really would love this girl! If you decided to make one to try out - please do post a pic!! |

Brooke -- I will be posting a picture within a couple of days. I am waiting on a hardware shipment. |
I'm so excited to see this, I think it's a great idea!! |
I think it's a great idea. I saw a short leash advertised online yesterday to be used when walking in traffic. If you have an adjustable, you only need to carry one leash. When I'm getting out of the car, in NYC traffic, with bags, my handbag and Max, a short leash would be wonderful! |
I like the idea of being able to adjust the length depending on where we are walking. It would certainly cut down on the amount of leashes we have for length. Now if you could make one that changes colors... :D |

Finally, at long last I have the hardware issue resolved -- bought some and made some -- here are the pics |
Ohhhh....so you just slide the buckle thing (like you do a harness to tighten) to the length you want? Is that right? What length does it start out at and what can it go down to? btw....how is the motorcycle riding coming along? |
Cindy this is Genius!! I love the color on that one as well!! I love your leashes i use the one i got from my GE buddy (thanks Peanut) everyday!! I will be ordering 2 of these from you! If you have not ordered a step in harness and leash from Cindy you have to they are amazing i absolutly love them!! |

You are exactly right about the the way you adjust the leash length. They will adjust from slightly over 6' down to around 3 1/2' :( I do not enjoy riding the motorcycle. :( |
Cindy, if you are making them i am sure they will be GREAT! *why don't you like the motorcycle, if I am on there for more than an hour, my back and hips hurt, but I am still trying to be a biker babe* |
What a wonderful idea. this is just what i would need for copper. He is a total scout ahead kind of guy, and this would be great for training purposes. Right now I either have to wrap my leash, or hold it in my right hand accross my body and guide him on my left side. ( not sure if it makes sense the way I explained it) Anyway I like the idea that they could be close while walking but still have the option to make the leash a little longer. We would be interested!!! |
What a great idea!! Hello Cindy! This is a really neat idea! So glad it is available through you! I posted on the thread about the coupler. I am also going to send you a PM. Thank you so much!! :) |
They look great Cindy! I love the concept of these! Very clever!! I need to place an order with you SOON ;) |
great idea!!!! |
