The Roamer leash from Ruffwear is my new favorite leash. This contraption has a bungee-like cord inserted in the center of the leash, which allows it to expand from 5' to 10'. It's great for those walks where you sometimes want control, and sometimes want to let your dog explore. The bungee system keeps the lead from tangling and it saves your shoulder!
That's only part of why I like this leash. It has an adjustable handle with a side-release buckle so you can hook your dog up to a post, or put it around your waist for hands-free movement. I've been using the leash as a tether to keep a new puppy close by my side at home, and it works great. I can tether her to me, the desk, coffee table, etc. The elastic in the center keeps her from getting tangled and saves on my back.
In addition, the leash has a "traffic handle" near the collar so you have more control when you need it. You can tell it's well-made, from the heavy-duty nylon webbing, to the sturdy hardware. It's available in two sizes, and three colors.
