The product, in the report: Flexi retractable dog leash,the cord is basically a thick clothes line retractable which is extremely dangerous ,and there’s not enough room for fingers in the handle area if the leash gets ripped out of your hand your fingers get stuck
Walking my dog with the 24 ft cord type flexi retractable dog leash,my dog was spooked and ran to the full extension of the leash ripping it out of my hand breaking my ring finger,there is not enough room in the handle so when the leash is forced out of your hand fingers get stuck in the handle,I was lucky that I just broke my finger on the handle,for the last 20 yrs theses leashes have been when the clothesline cord wraps around fingers have been amputating fingers ,creating severe cuts burns and eye injuries,everyday these flexi leashes are hurting another consumer who wasn’t aware.the flexi retractable dog leash has a picture of an amputated finger printed on there leash as well as a cut and burn warning,there are no warning on the lack of finger space in the handle.
