Aside from the fact that they technically illegal in the city limits, they are a danger to not only those who chose to use them but to all of us who encounter those who use them. Suffice it to say that I’m not a fan of them at all. I literally get away from those who have their dogs on them. They are a great danger to all of us.

If you still think that you are one of thoe ‘special’ people who chose to think that you can use them and not jeopardize others, please keep your dogs on a short leash when passing and especially locked when moving round your builidings. Lock those leashes when you are in your elevators and your lobbies!

I tell those who use them as I’m passing to “lock your leash, please!”

I’m not going to go into all the horror stories of things that have happened to dogs who are on them. You’ve all heard of theses disasters.
😦

I hate them! I refuse to use them if a cleint has them for their dogs. If you hire a dog walker and they agree to use a flexi, do not hire them! Seriously!

Many dog have spacial issues and your dog on a flexi makes for many more problems.

Flexis were designed to be used in wide spaces. A hike in the woods…in the country…on the beach. They were never intended for city use, with the limited space we have on the siidewalks. If you insist on using them, beware of me! :p
