Best Retractable Dog leash

The Flexi dog leash owes its name to its inventor Manfred Bogdahn, to whom the company Flexi Bogdahn GmbH & CO. KG. The dog friend developed the Flexi dog leash and was the market leader for many years. This is why many normal petrol consumers use the term flexi line for any roller line, no matter which manufacturer it belongs to. The company has been marketing these special dog leashes for 40 years. In the meantime, the North German manufacturer of Retractable Dog leash, headquartered in Hamburg, is expanding into more than 90 countries and employs around 300 people.

The basic principle of this roller line is quite simple. The dog can move freely while walking, can sniff and rumstöbern. This he can do up to a maximum radius of 10 meters, then the line stops virtually automatically. But it is also possible for the dog owner to stop the unrolled leash at any time at the push of a button due to a certain mechanism. For this he can move the dog with an arm pull to come back to him. Furthermore, the line can be set to a desired length using the permanent stop function of the button. The technology is built into a plastic housing with handle and winding mechanism of the leash inside. The line is thus wound up and unwound with the aid of so-called driving springs, which are also used in car safety belts. The leash end is then attached to the dog collar or harness. The leash is always under a light pull when the dog is moving and thus ensures a quick effect on the four-legged friend

The Retractable Dog leash has supporters, but also opponents. Here there are just differences of opinion with the dog owners and animal friends. The advocates are pleased with the possible flexibility and freedom of movement their dog has with this leash. The opponents propagate a kind of pseudo freedom, which is pretended to the dog and the dog is even restricted in its natural behavior. A clear advantage of the Flexi line compared to the conventional line is definitely the freedom of movement of up to 10 meters radius. Especially in the city or in places where it is not possible to let the dog run free, this is a positive argument. It is also practical, because if you compare the flexi line with a towing line, which is also up to 10 meters long, the latter has to be wound up and unwound manually again and again or dragged along the ground all the time. Furthermore, the dog handler can also act on his four-legged friend in the distance with the stop button without great effort and bring him quickly to himself and then lead him thanks to the lock button on the short leash, as it is done with a classic dog leash. It can be seen as problematic that the Retractable Dog leash is always under light tension and so the dog always works against a pull and will pull increasingly on the leash, but this should be corrected with education. More dangerous, however, is the incorrect handling of the roller line, because a grip on the extended line can lead to painful cut or burn-like injuries. What is also a disadvantage of the Retractable Dog leash is that the dog should not be fastened with a Rollleine at firm objects, since here injury danger exists. But all in all the Retractable Dog leash is an innovative invention, which can bring joy and harmony for owner and dog, if also here, like with other kinds of leashes also, enough time is invested into the education for the safe leash guidance.
