I hate retractable leashes. Not only are they extremely dangerous, there is no dog that needs to walk 12 feet away from you. I wish people would realize how little control they have with a retractable and use a good old-fashioned 6 ft lead. I love my dog way too much to ever put a retractable on him. My dog is by my side and I try to get him to an area where people don't walk and I always pick up. Wouldn't have a dog if I wasn't going to be a considerate and responsible owner.
