· This retractable leash or lead is intended to help you lead and restrain
your dog. The leash user is responsible for keeping the dog under control
at all times. The leash is for dogs that are controllable and well behaved.
Remember all the time the following tips:
· DO NOT use this leash for disobedient or uncontrollable dogs.
· DO NOT use this leash for dogs that exceed the specified weight for
the leash.
· DO NOT use this leash as a stationary (non hand-held) leash attached
to a pole or other fixed object. You should use specially designed garden
tie-out as a stationary leash.
· DO NOT use this leash with any product except for the dog’s collar,
which must be strong, and in good condition.
· DO NOT use the leash near or around infants or children.
· DO NOT attempt to operate or use more than one leash at a time.
· DO NOT allow anyone to touch or come in contact with the leash cord
or tape lead or all belt while in use. It can cause injuries like cutting,
burning and amputations.
BEFORE USE
· ALWAYS examine the leash before each use.
· Stop using the leash if it becomes frayed, damaged, shows signs of
being chewed, or does not function properly.
· Be sure your dog’s collar is strong enough to withstand the tension
of the leash and a sudden stopping of the leash.
· Be sure to have your dog under control before attaching the leash.
· Securely fasten the leash's hook to your dog's collar and to the leash
safety loop before each use.
· Wear gloves when using the leash to reduce the risk of hand or finger
cuts, burns or amputations from the cord or lead or all belt.
· Wear long pants to reduce the risk of leg burns and cuts from the
cord or lead or all belt.
PROPER USE
· Hold leash by the handle not the cord or lead or all belt.
· Never allow the cord or lead or all belt to become wrapped around
fingers. The cord or lead or all belt can cut or amputate a finger.
· Never allow the cord or lead or all belt to become wrapped around
hands, arms, legs or any other body part. The cord or lead or all belt
can cut or burn you or another person.
· To reduce the risk of injury from being pulled to the ground by your
dog, always make sure you have firm and secure footing and you watch
closely your dog’s behavior and activities while using the leash. If
your dog starts running, immediately press the brake button and prepare
yourself for a jolt.
· If the cord or lead or all belt becomes wrapped around you or someone
else, drop the leash and allow it to unwrap.
· Keep the cord or lead or all belt from wrapping around the dog’s neck
and other body parts.
· Always hold the leash with your arm down and extended away from your
body. Never hold the leash near your head. The cord or lead or all belt
can retract rapidly and the hook can cause eye and face injury.
· If the leash separates from the collar and safety loop during use,
immediately apply brake and turn your face away.
· When near other persons or animals, shorten your leash cord or lead
or all belt and control your dog at your side. Never use the leash near
or around infants and children.
· If you lose control of your dog, immediately drop the leash.
· Do not allow the leash cord or lead or all belt to be chewed or rubbed
against trees, edges or other sharp or rough surfaces.
· Before detaching the leash be sure your dog is under control and the
leash cord or lead or all belt is fully retracted. If not fully retracted,
the leash cord or lead or all belt can retract rapidly and the hook
(8) can cause eye and face injury.
· To avoid the risk of injuries like cutting, burning and amputations
to infants and children, do not use the leash near or while operating
an infant or child stroller, toy wagon or any other device used to transport
infants and children. The leash cord or lead or all belt and the leash
hook can cause serious eye, face, neck, and head injuries. Serious cutting,
burning and amputation injuries can occur if the leash cord or lead
or all belt or leash hook come in contact with an infant or child.
REPAIR
· Do not attempt to repair the leash.
· Do not open the leash housing. The leash housing contains a pre-wound
spring that can cause injury if opened. Opening the housing will void
the limited warranty.
TO ATTACH LEASH: Be sure to have your dog under control before attempting
to attach the leash. With the cord or lead or all belt fully retracted
into the leash housing, put the safety loop around the dog's neck near
your dog's collar. Attach both rings of the safety loop and the ring
of the dog's collar to the hook on the leash.
TO OPERATE: Hold the leash by the handle not the cord or lead or all
belt. The leash cord or lead or all belt will run in and out freely
without agging.
TO STOP LEASH: Press the brake button down firmly with your thumb.
TO RELEASE THE BRAKE LOCK: Press the
brake button with your thumb, using your thumb draw back the lock, then
slowly release the brake button.
TO WALK TO HEEL: Fully retract leash cord or lead or all belt and lock
the brake.
TO BRING YOU DOG NEARER: Extend your arm foreward and press the brake
button using your thumb to prevent the dog from further extending the
leash cord or lead or all belt with the brake button depressed, step
towards your dog and at the same time bring your arm towards your side.
Release the brake button and repeat the movement as necessary.
TO DETACH LEASH: Before attempting to detach leash, be sure your dog
is under control, the leash cord or lead or all belt is fully retracted,
and the brake button is locked.
WET cord or lead or all belt: If the
leash cord or lead or all belt gets wet, pull it out of the leash housing
as far as it will go; lock the brake and leave it to dry overnight.
After the leash cord or lead or all belt is dry, carefully and slowly
retract the leash cord or lead or all belt into the leash housing by
pushing and releasing the brake button and allowing the leash cord or
lead or all belt lead to retract in short
intervals. This will prevent the leash cord
or lead or all belt from retracting rapidly and the hook from possibly
hitting you causing eye or face injury.
The pugga retractable dog leash is for use by
responsible adults only. NEVER use this leash near or around infants
and children.
