I dislike retractable leashes. Tried to dog sit for a lady whose two dogs were her most beloved things in her world. She insisted on the retractable leashes. Once on a walk these two dogs would get entangled in their leashes because they were used to walking with their masters. That job did nt last long as I could not control her pooches on those leashes.


I know of one dog who crossed onto the golf cart path in front of a moving golf cart and got hit by it and had her hip fractured. The once sweet dog turned into a dog that you never know what she will do despite healing from her injury.

Sorry to hear about your Aunt.

One thing. I hope that the dog is OK?
