I have a retractable lead for my small dog but I want to work on his recall. Long leads are supposed to be better for this but I can’t quite get my head around how they work .
The ones I’ve seen have no handle. If your dog won’t come back, do you just have to reel them in like a fishing line? What about rope burn?
Won’t it take longer to reel them back in on a long line if they won’t recall as you’ll have to ‘gather’ the lead up?

Are long leads better than retractable?
