Growpetz Retractable Dog Leash Saves Dog's Life By Preventing Pet From Running Into Motorway

Growpetz, a manufacturer of high quality dog leashes has recently shared the story of how their product saved a pets life.

Several days ago, a young family was walking their dog near a busy motorway. The dog spotted what is believed to be a rabbit and lunged toward the road. The owner believes the dog would surely have been killed by a passing car, were it not for the lock button on the Growpetz retractable dog leash. The owner was able to press the lock button in time to stop the dog in its tracks.

The family contacted Growpetz to thank them for their fantastic product, which they believe prevented a horrible accident from happening.

Keith Kruger from Growpetz responded, "We are so pleased the entire family and their dog are fine and that they believe our product is responsible for this. We have done our best to develop a product that is designed to keep pets and their owners completely safe and it is good to hear that it is working as intended."

The retractable dog leash is available for purchase on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V3ZWL9E. It also features a bright yellow reflective lead, visible from a distance in the dark during nighttime walks. This added safety feature is intended to make both dog and owner visible to passing motorists.

Growpetz has recently updated the design of their leash, which they believe made the difference in preventing the dog from running into the busy road. The new design allows walkers to easily switch between pause and lock modes, helping maintain control of a pet at all times. They also added an improved braking system, further increasing the level of control an owner holds.

Amazon reviewers have made a number of comments regarding the new design. One explained, "I really like that it has an 'emergency break' as well as a lock. It's easy to move the switch back and forth. Also, when it's locked it's LOCKED. There's none of the gear slipping I'm used to in other models. That's really what blew me away."

The above-mentioned family members are happy to report that their dog is fine today. They've recovered from the shock of their pet nearly running onto the road, and recommend that others purchase the Growpetz retractable dog leash to keep their pets safe, too.
