Abstract
A leash assembly includes a retractable leash in combination with a pet refuse bag dispenser. The bag dispenser underlies a handle of the leash and includes a lid for permitting access to an inner cavity in which a plurality of bags are disposed. The bag dispenser is either integrally formed with the leash handle, or removably connected to a base of the handle. The plastic bags are disposed within the inner cavity such that the bags may be individually removed through a window provided in a side wall of the bag dispenser. The plastic bags are wound about a tubular axle that has circular flanges at opposite ends such that the roll of bags may rotate within the bag dispenser.
