what does retractable mean? Can you pull your dog back to you?

The leash is retractable not necessarily the dog. I find the best way to get her back is pull back on the lease - apply the brake then pull back again and repeat until the dog is were you want her. My dog is a small/med size so this works for us. However -there is nothing like good training.

Yes, it is much like a flexi leash. I prefer the flexi to this one though as the brake on this leash slips.

yes. you can pull your dog back to you by pulling and locking the leash again and again but it can be difficult to pulll your dog back to you if he is pulling away this locks the leash to stop them from walking further. This leash expands and retracts. You have the ability to give your dog more leash as apposed to only having a 6 ft or a 9 ft lead. You may also lock the leash at a few feet if you choose to keep ur dog at your side. In my opinion a retractable leash is more convenient but if your dog chews through leashes this isn't the leash for you. They are very thin and easy to chew through. yes. you can pull your dog back to you by pulling and locking the leash again and again but it can be difficult to pulll your dog back to you if he is pulling away this locks the leash to stop them from walking further.

Hello, this is designed to help prevent the dog from fully bending to reach their backend. Unfortunately, we can not guarantee that this will fully prevent your dog from reaching around.

If the collar is adjusted correctly you should be able to regain control. If you do have a problem keeping the collar on use an over the shoulders harness as a secondary safety on a separate leash.

I cannot find any kind of a hook to clip a leash on mine. If that's important to you, you might want to try the Kurgo (I was pretty happy with that one - though the pockets aren't as roomy and it's all one piece). FWIW, my dog pulls a lot and I found a pinch collar works pretty well. Believe it or not, combined with a retractable leash, he's much more manageable. He has more freedom and responds better to the pinch collar. I know that's not the "proper" way to walk a dog, but I'm happy if I can walk him without getting sore arms!

Usually you can call Animal Control in your city and they'll come pick it up. After they relocate the animal they'll call you and you can go get your trap back.

There is no retractable handle. It's a backpack style, but it does have a handle on top but it's not like luggage

I only used this device twice with my dog while set up at camp and hiking for the weekend before I was over it. My dog is really good about staying by my side, but I think it would have worked better if I used a longer leash. I was using a 4 foot cord and it felt like I was dragging him the whole time. This device wouldn't be good for a dog who pulls on a regular leash because if they start pulling on your hips it could turn dangerous on trails.

Basically the leash is connected to the existing collar and goes around the chest of the dog. The slack is controlled by the metal clasp that connects to the existing collar. So he'd have to be able to get lose from his own collar for him to back out of it.

The cord can be pushed back inside the back. There is not a real to retract but it can be kept "inside" the back of the opener.

Hi there. I actually ended up getting rid of the gate and ordered a retractable mesh gate for our dogs. It was easy to manipulate but we did not like the look of it when open. The retractable ones are for our two pooches just enough of an impasse. Good luck.

You just slip it over your pups head and then pull his/her legs thru. You can tighten the harness once its on. Put it retracts as your dog pulls so totally up to you. Its real easy!

I dont think she could because even if the harness part of the leash came undone cause of her backwards motion you still have to clip the leash to her regular collar so she couldn't get away from you.

Yes it is. Too easy. If the dog pulls hard it will disconnect. That's why I returned it. A trainer warned me, but I disregarded the warning.

No, it doesn't have a retractable cord, as the cord is attached to the lift off portion of the vacuum. Also, retractables tend to have a shorter cord to work with the mechanism. This one has a super long cord, so I can do 2 large rooms easily without having to disconnect. The lift off easily reaches up my entire flight of stairs, which my retractable wouldn't. I would have to stop in the middle, unplug, go upstairs to plug in, then finish. I agree retractables are great (I have one for the upstairs), but for my purpose this works better.

I have labs that pull also. This collar prevents the dog from backing out of it and getting loose. Mine still pulled with this collar. My vet recommended the easy walk harness and it works like a charm. It makes it difficult for them to pull because the strap crosses over their front legs. Amazon has the best prices!!

if your dog is a puller that is always possible. The manufacturer does not recommend this for unruly or uncontrollable dogs.

I have 2 Golden Retrievers and one has always been a puller and a dragger. Never experienced a problem with her "backing out" to date. Mind you, it does`nt make her the (perfect) walking Dog but I know longer need to risk having my arm pulled out of my shoulder socket.
