- Retractable Leashes
Walking your dog is a great way to bond and get some exercise. Did you know that the type of leash you use can make a huge difference? Even though they may seem like a good idea, retractable leashes in particular come with several problems.
Here’s why you should think twice before using one:
1. Less Control
Retractable leashes can extend up to 26 feet or more, giving your dog a lot of freedom to roam. This might sound appealing, but it also means that your dog can get far enough away from you to encounter hazards before you can react. Whether it’s a busy street, another dog, or a tempting piece of garbage, the distance makes it challenging to control your dog’s movements effectively.
It also means that in an emergency, the extended length of a retractable leash makes it difficult to pull your dog to safety, especially if your dog is distracted or frightened. The delay in retracting the leash could be the difference between a safe outcome and a dangerous situation.
2. More Risk of Injury
The thin, cord-like material can cause severe rope burns, cuts, and even amputations if it gets wrapped around a person or dog. If the leash locks suddenly, it can hurt your dog’s neck or spine.
3. Potential for Equipment Failure
The internal mechanisms in a retractable leash can break down over time, leading to unexpected failures. The thin cord can also snap under pressure, which is more likely if your dog is large or prone to sudden lunges.
4. Bad Walking Habits
Dogs on retractable leashes learn that pulling = more freedom.
5. Trouble for Other People
Not everyone you encounter on your walk is comfortable with dogs, and some dogs are reactive or aggressive towards others. A retractable leash can extend your dog’s reach into other people's personal space, causing discomfort or potential conflicts. Maintaining a shorter leash helps ensure that everyone can enjoy public spaces comfortably and safely.

Watch Loren and Kira as they demonstrate a fun way to do Recall!
The "Down" Command! There are so many great uses for this behavior but most people see it as a simple way to get their dog to lay down. "Down" is an essential command for all types of working and non-working dogs. The command can be used in a variety of places and help the dog control their energy, focus and overall behavior. In this video our trainer demonstrates the hierarchy of a command in this video. They start by luring the dog with a treat, and then moves on to using a hand signal. Eventually, they fade away the hand signal and uses only body language to communicate with the dog. Finally, they are able to give the vocal command without any other cues. If you are interested in training your dog how to "Down," or have any other training objectives you want to share, we are extremely excited about assisting our furry friends learn and improve.
