Where do you people come up with this stuff?
I have 3 "retractable leashes". I just tested all of them. The are essentially "free-wheeling". An empty teacup hooked to the end of the leash, is sufficient to extend them.
That's certainly not hurting a dogs neck. Straining on a non-retractable leash may be different story.
