Claim 0:
1. A releasable pet leash comprising:
an elongated tether having a proximal end and a distal end;
a handle at the proximal end of said tether;
a bobbin at the distal end of said tether, said bobbin having a peripheral groove near an end;
a linkage assembly adapted to couple with a pet collar; said linkage assembly having a quick-release fitting that releasably grips said bobbin, said quick-release fitting including a sleeve slidably mounted on an inner, spring-biased latching mechanism that grips the groove on said bobbin whereby when said sleeve is moved in a predetermined direction, the latching mechanism releases said bobbin;
a collar encapsulating said sleeve, said collar having a first end and an opposing second end with a passageway extending therebetween, said passageway having a wider portion that receives said sleeve and a narrower portion that receives said bobbin whereby if elevator doors shut with a pet on one side and an owner on another side, the second end of the collar engages the elevator doors and said sleeve is stopped by the narrower portion causing the internal locking components to release the bobbin.
