I'm a dead duck.
My face will be featured on a milk carton as "lost" soon.
Mom will change the locks.
All mom keeps saying is something about a heart attack and
being a nervous wreck.
I can't believe my NEW FLEXI leash snapped Ben.
We need to investigate this thing.
Yep, snapped like a piece of string.
I don't think you should have chased the motorcycle Lily.
I told you to stay. You kept running.
You got me in big trouble Flexi Leash.
Mom will never buy you again.

We were walking in a busy beach parking lot when my Lily saw a motorcycle.
When she went to dart after it, the Flexi leash snapped..she took off at least 500 feet or more.
Mom almost died right there.
She spoke of heart attacks and nerves being a wreck. Of being sick and shaky.(drama)
The cycle stopped, Lily jumped on the man and kissed him. The man held Lil til we got there.
Me and mom couldn't help but kiss Lily.

The lady gave in and bought Lil a Flexi for "up to a 44 pound" kid.
ut oh....we just had a flashback
woo guys like to live life on the edge i shee
ReplyDeletewe fink lily has the hots for motowcycle dawgs she likes the bad boys teehee
pibble sugars
the pittie pack
So glad she's ok! We actually had a couple of problems with our standard clip leash; we never consider how unsturdy that little button that clips the leash is and it came undone 2 times. We reinforced it with another circle clip so it can't come undone. I had never even thought about the idea the clip could come undone, or a leash could break.
ReplyDeleteWow Lily, you are a strong girl. Stanzie broke the 'D' ring, right out of her leather collar once when a deer crossed our path.
ReplyDeleteGood thing you are movin' up to the big girl leash!

pee ese...this gives me a good idea for a post...
YIKES!! That sounds really scary!! Hopefully the new leash works better!! Glad you are ok!!
ReplyDeleteHugs and Licks, Bruschi
Holy cat crap! Our mom is always worried about that happening!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay, Lily!

Momma says her flexi snapped once when she was walking Angus the airedale and she FREAKED and wouldn't use one like forever after that but now she has started using one with PeeWee and I am going to tell her to upgrade to a stronger one for sure.
ReplyDeleteSlobbers,

Oooh, that must have been so scary. We wear those darn choke collars when we walk. Mom says she can't manage three flexi handles at one time,and the collars we have won't break.
ReplyDeleteThat was one very nice motorcycle man.

Lily Lily Lily you musn't chase the motorcycles. Unless of course they're really cute guys in which case our mommy would like you to catch them and send them to her!
ReplyDeleteNo really, no chasin and givin yer mommy the attacks of heart and nerves. k?
Bobo and Meja
Oh Lily, how could you not have chased the motorcycle?! Personally, I love skateboarders. However, I'm a wee 13 pounds so I haven't been able to snap a leash yet. Better luck next time :)
ReplyDeleteMuah,

Oh boy!!! What a strong girl u is!!! Mom doesn't use does flexi things cause they give me a whole lotta distance to get a whole lotta speed, to put a who...um...yeah I thinks you gets da point. Hmm I shoudl try dat once
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of flexi leashes AT ALL. This is NOT the furst time I know of this happening.
ReplyDeleteGlad that The Motorcycle Man stopped and held Lily. Whew! LUCKY...
So gald this ended OK, I must say I walk George with a bog standered lead and change to the flexi lead when on open ground, it worries me that sometimes the catch comes off and if that was by a road, well I don't like to think about it.
ReplyDeleteHe has learnt that he can only run around when I have swapped the leads over, and knows its back to, no pull when the short lead is on.

Hm, I haven't been able to break a leash yet, but I sure have come close to pulling moms arm out of the socket!

Kendra's broke, too. But that was because Bella kept biting it and pulling Kendra along. Scary that it could snap, though. Bella also chases anything on wheels.
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Kendra & Bella
Boy that is scary, Lily. I'm so glad that you are OK. When we read the post title we were so scared for you!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was about 6 months old I broke through a leather collar to go greet 2 big doggies. My mom person says I was very lucky that they were friendly.

OMG talk about heart attack city! Mom would have died on the spot! Thank goodness the motorcycle man held on to Lily until your mom got there.
ReplyDeleteRoxy
PS try not to give your mom another heart attack. Moms don't do well with that sort of stress.
We are sure glad you are ok and so is Mom. You should not do that to mom. If she had a heart attack who would take you for a walk??

WOofs and Licks,

PeeS Motorcycle men are great!
*shudder* I'm glad you're okay, Lilly!
ReplyDeleteWe will NEVER buy flexi leads, for a lot of reasons, but one of the worst is that we've heard too many stories of hounds who get startled and if the handle gets dropped, they keep running because they're scared of the sound coming behind them.
Bunny
Oh no! Glad everything turned out ok. Mom says we're going back to our old leashes. Miss Shelby is way toooooo fast for us and Dad would have a COW if her's snapped!

Those bad boys sure are heart/leash breakers.
ReplyDeleteIt is a wonder that your mom didn't tan your hide :) Just a saying of course. What a nice man to hold you until your mom could come and get yous.
Kitty and Coco
Yeah, they are not kidding about those weight limits for sure! Momma uses the 'belt' kind that don't hurt people's legs when they get wrapped around them too (why are peoples always getting tangled in leashes??). I don't think they are as likely to break unless the whole thing comes off the reel. One time I took off and broke the retractor part but was still attached to momma. She would have had a heart attack too. So glad everyone is ok!
