This is a retractable lead: a molded shell 180 mm (7.1 in) long holding a flat woven tape on a sprung reel, with a single thumb button on the top edge and an alloy swivel snap hook on the end of the tape. It comes in a 3 m and a 5 m version, which is 9.8 ft and 16.4 ft.

Waffle is far too heavy for this one. The supplier's own spec sheet sells it for small and medium dogs, and that is where we are leaving it.

Push the button forward to let tape out, press it back to lock

One button does both jobs. The supplier's mechanism slide shows it pushed forward for free running and pressed back to lock the reel where it stands. There is no second switch and no separate ratchet.

Flat tape rather than round cord

The reel carries a flat woven webbing tape rather than a round cord, wound flat on the drum. The cutaway slide shows the tape, a steel coil spring under the reel core, and a molded stop block on the tape just above the hook.

Two lengths on the same shell

The shell is 180 mm long in both versions. Only the length of tape inside changes: 3 m on one, 5 m on the other. Weight, grip and button are identical, so the choice is only about how far you want the dog to get.

Four colorways, all two-tone

The supplier's color slide prints four: white, white with grey, pink with grey, and black with grey. The grey is the soft insert around the grip opening and the disc on the side. The shell around it carries the color.

What we do not have for you

No weight: one figure is declared for both the 3 m and the 5 m version and it cannot be right for both. No tape width, no shell thickness, and no dog weight limit printed anywhere. The supplier prints a pull figure on the tape slide; we have not tested it and it is not part of this listing.

How far does it let the dog go?

3 m, about 9.8 ft, or 5 m, about 16.4 ft, depending on which version you pick. Both numbers are printed on the supplier's spec table.

How does the brake work?

A single thumb button on the top of the shell. Push it forward and the tape runs out freely; press it back and the reel locks at whatever length is out. You work it with the same hand that holds the grip.

What size dog is this for?

Small and medium dogs, which is what the spec table says. No maximum dog weight is printed on any slide, so if your dog is at the top of that range we would not lean on this one.

What are the shell and the tape made of?

The supplier answers this twice and disagrees with itself. Its spec table prints ABS for the shell, woven cord for the tape and alloy for the hook; the data field in the same feed says polypropylene, so the shell plastic stays unconfirmed on this page. The hook is an alloy swivel snap, and a separate slide names it zinc alloy.

What clips to the collar?

A swivel snap hook on a short tab at the end of the tape, so the tape can turn without twisting. Just above it is a molded block that stops the metal hitting the shell when the tape runs all the way back in.

Which of the four colorways is which?

Four to choose from: plain white, white with a grey insert, pink with a grey insert, and black with a grey insert.

Why is there no weight on this page?

Because we cannot get one we trust. The supplier declares one weight across the 3 m and the 5 m version, and two meters of extra tape has to weigh something, so at least one of those two is wrong.

Imported.

Why we make this

Waffle is a Bernese mountain dog. He is good at lying down and not much else.

The shop started after a bad few weeks. He began pausing before he jumped out of the car and we did not think much of it. Then he brought back up a bowl of food he had eaten in about nine seconds.

Neither was an emergency. Both were the kind of thing that becomes one if you keep not noticing.

We sell the dull stuff. A ramp so he steps down instead of landing. A bowl he cannot inhale. A base he cannot shove across the kitchen floor.

The best day is the one where nothing happens.
