Speaking of control… Don’t let your dog pee on any of the pumpkins! Remember that people will be touching them and taking them home to carve or decorate with. I don’t think retractable leashes are ever a good choice, but especially somewhere like a pumpkin patch, you want to make sure your dog stays close by you and under control. I recommend you use a regular 4′ or 6′ leash for these kinds of outings.
