This kind of leash attaches directly to the collar so it attaches directly to the collar and the leash is housed in a plastic casing and it's on a little system so you can get some leash coming in and out. One thing that I would caution people if your going to use this kind of leash that they make two kinds, one is a thicker belt type which you can see I have one right here its actually a belt and they also make a corded type. A corded type is a very, very thin cord and that can actually be quit dangerous both for hands and for the dog if it gets the dog wrapped around it, it can be quit painful. So if your going to use a flexi I recommend using a the corded type the belt the belted typed I'm sorry, and you can see that the dog actually have a little bit freedom on this kind of leash. This particular one is 26 feet long and they make them 16 feet as well and they make them different sizes so different strength depending on the size of your dog. This is fairly a large one again cause its 26 feet long and it's got a stopper here so if your dog is going out you want to stop them, you would just press on the button and it keeps it from retracting any more and if you want to let it go you just take your thumb off the button. Good girl. Okay let's go Urs.
