Ideal for parks, open spaces, and areas where letting your dog fully off the lead isn't safe. The one-button lock lets you instantly restrict the lead length when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre retractable leads safe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed correctly in appropriate environments, yes. They require more attentiveness than fixed leads — the cord can tangle around legs, and greater distance means slightly less immediate control. Avoid using retractable leads near traffic, in crowded areas, or with reactive dogs. They're best used in open, low-risk environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the lock mechanism work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single button brakes and locks the cord. Press once to slow and stop your dog's movement; press and hold to lock the cord at its current length. Release to allow free movement again. Practice the mechanism before your first walk so it becomes instinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it with a puppy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend caution with puppies. Retractable leads can undermine recall training — puppies learn that pulling extends the lead, which is the opposite of what you want to teach. A fixed training lead is better until recall and lead manners are well established.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size should I choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a lead rated at or above your dog's actual weight. Using a lead rated for a smaller dog risks cord breakage if your dog pulls hard. When in doubt, always size up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Teamdrop","offers":[{"title":"Black Gray \/ 3m","offer_id":57299214532952,"sku":"SU00099498-Black Gray-3m","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black Gray \/ 3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","offer_id":57299214565720,"sku":"SU00099498-Black Gray-3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue Gray \/ 3m","offer_id":57299214598488,"sku":"SU00099498-Blue Gray-3m","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue Gray \/ 3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","offer_id":57299214631256,"sku":"SU00099498-Blue Gray-3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple Gray \/ 3m","offer_id":57299214664024,"sku":"SU00099498-Purple Gray-3m","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple Gray \/ 3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","offer_id":57299214696792,"sku":"SU00099498-Purple Gray-3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brown Gray \/ 3m","offer_id":57299214729560,"sku":"SU00099498-Brown Gray-3m","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Brown Gray \/ 3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","offer_id":57299214762328,"sku":"SU00099498-Brown Gray-3m includes 1 roll of garbage bags","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/3860\/0792\/files\/ff45c258-3648-4417-b4cd-2f9c04b1878e.jpg?v=1780186983","url":"https:\/\/uk9.co.uk\/products\/retractable-dog-leash","provider":"UK9 Petcare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
