Flexi-leads and stupid pet owner (aka me today)
Now this picture does not show half of how bad it actually is due to the blur
Already being a flexi lead hater I should have known better...
Basically a little while back I was brought a flexi-lead by a family member - Its very pretty all purple etc. But I KNEW they weren't ideal. However being as I had just announced it was walkie time to Teddy and then headed to the lead rack to find nothing but the flexi lead I thought ow It'll be alright just this once. WRONG! We were on our way back from the field along the path beside the road, I had the lead set to nice and short and locked (I checked several times!) Out of no where teddy rather out of characterly launches himself towards the road! And the lead let out all of its slack! My heart stopped and I grabbed the cord as it burnt across my fingers..
Thankgod I grabbed it which slowed him down at least so the car had time to break! I couldnt be more thankful that the driver was paying that much attention.
Stupid, stupid British one.
I should know better.
