Worldwise is recalling the "slydog" retractable dog leashes.
The metal clasp connected to the dog's collar can break, causing it to recoil unexpectedly.
Five people have been hurt, with facial cuts and a bruised collar bone.

Next, on the recall list, these cosmetic accessory bags for young children.
Maker Bonne Bell says the metal clasps on the bags contain high levels of lead.
They were sold at retail stores nationwide.

And finally, Circo children's bobbie socks are being recalled--they were sold in packs of six.
The maker says the ribbon on the socks can come off, causing a choking hazard to young keiki.
