Flexi Durabelt Belt Retractable Leash - Small/Medium 44 lbs. - Blue 16 ft.

Directions:

INSPECT LEASH AND COLLAR BEFORE EACH USE

Make sure that all parts of the leash and your dog's collar are in good condition. If any part of the leash or your dog's collar are damaged, frayed or broken, do not use the leash.

ATTACHING THE LEASH

• Always use the enclosed safety collar in addition to your dog's collar as illustrated. The safety collar prevents snap-back if the dog's collar breaks, or if the leash disconnects from your dog's collar.
• Attach the hook of the leash to the D-ring of your dog's collar. Never attach it to your dog's ID tag ring. That ring is not strong and will break.
• Make sure that the hook is fully closed and securely attached to the collar D-ring and the rings of the safety collar.

DETACHING THE LEASH

Make sure your dog is under control. Fully retract the leash before detaching it.

WHAT TO DO IF THE CORD GETS WET

Pull the tape/belt out of the leash housing as far as it will go and lock the brake. Leave it to dry overnight in a place that is out of reach of children. When the tape/belt is dry, carefully and slowly retract the leash to keep it under control.
