ABSTRACT:
A leash for animals comprising a housing having a rotatable reel disposed therein and about which a flexible tape is disposed. Releasable latch means are provided and operative for releasing the reel to enable the tape to be extended out of the housing against the opposition of spring biasing means. When the latch means is released the tape remains locked at any extended position. Release of the latch means causes the biasing means to retract the tape within the housing when the biasing force exceeds the tension on the tape. An open mouth clip is attached to the free end of the tape to enable the tape to be connected to the collar of an animal without removing the collar.
