Sunday lawn care looks like just what we need! I’m so glad that such an option exists today. Does anyone have any before/after photos you wouldn’t mind sharing?
We just flew through CLT and on the way out there was the coolest pet relief area: a patch of artificial grass with a fire hydrant in the center lol. Wish I had taken a photo to share!
Yes, we’ve tried the Lazy Leash 2.0 and 3.0 (the only difference from what I could tell is that in the 3.0 Lazy Leash version the button that releases the leash is made of something that’s sturdier than plastic, which means the button doesn’t get stuck as often).
We used them on our medium-sized (45 lbs) Carolina Brown Dog (Lily) as well as our crazy and feisty 40 lb Mountain Feist (Barley). Barley, strangely enough, went into perfect behavior mode on the Lazy Leash. But we figure it’s probably related to the style of leash, the sounds it makes, and how that reminded him of the leash he wore during some discipline training he’s had in the past.
As for general functionality of the leash – it works on both dogs and my wife loves it. It’s especially helpful with our dog Lily who’s friendly and we don’t mind letting off to roam now and then. But with Barley, who’s a tugger, it’s not as ideal since the hand-held device isn’t as comfortable as the ones on larger leashes.
In our experience older dogs do tend to shed more (we’ve had this happen primarily with our lab mixes and Goldens). I’m guessing just because older skin doesn’t hang on to the hair as well. We’ve got several shedding brushes and just spend a little more time vacuuming. But also in our experience there isn’t an extreme change in shedding. If the shedding has increased drastically you may want to check with your vet and make sure there isn’t something else going on.
