Retractable Pet Leash with Optional Harness Set

This automatic retractable leash is built for walking dogs and cats, and you can buy it on its own or as a set with a matching chest-and-back harness. The leash extends and retracts freely, so your pet has room to roam without a long line trailing on the ground.

Choose a length of 3 m (9.8 ft) or 5 m (16.4 ft). The shorter one is easier to handle in tight spaces, while the longer one gives more freedom in open areas. For the harness set, pick from I-beam and reflective harness styles in sizes S, M, L and XL. Colors include white, light gray, pink and beige-black. The leash alone comes in simple hand-held versions.

The housing is plastic and a complete unit weighs about 6.0 to 8.1 oz (170 to 230 g), light enough for a long walk. If you add the harness, measure your pet's chest first and compare it with the size you are choosing, since the harness does not make up for a poor fit.

Retractable leashes work best on open ground. Lock the length short near roads, crowds and other animals, keep a firm hold on the handle and never wrap the cord around your hand. Check the cord for wear before each use. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and let it dry.
