Abstract: The present invention is a two or more subject retractable leash retractable leash, and methods of use regarding the same, which includes a roll-back feature on the retractable leash. The leashes may be locked in place by engaging a single lever. The leashes retract regardless of whether the spools are locked or unlocked. The leashes retract independently of the other leashes, such that a dual leash may be used to walk one subject.

Abstract: A no-tangle, retractable leash device for more than one tethered entity, the leash device. The device includes a handle and a housing rotatably carried by the handle. The housing having an interior and at least a first and second aperture communicating the interior with the ambient environment. The device also includes at least a first and second leash reel carried within the housing. The first and second leash reels each carrying a respective leash and being independently rotatable enabling a respective leash to extend through a respective aperture of the housing. A brake inhibits the rotational movement of at least one reel.

Abstract: A robot that is capable of substantially autonomous movement includes a processing device, a memory, and a mobility structure controlled by the processing device. The processor directs the robot to move with any predetermined safe area having a boundary and a reference point. Optionally, the robot also exhibits features of social interactivity by accepting an input from a human, selecting dynamic content from a data base wherein the dynamic content is responsive to the input, and presenting the human with a response corresponding to the dynamic content selection.
