Val,
Don't feel bad, Nitro almost gave me rope burn all over my hands the other day while he was trying to run down a kid. I was using one of those coil leashes that let the dog run and I had a bumper in the same hand as the leash. Nitro took off after this kid and I couldn't reach the stop button on the leash, so I grabbed the cord with my left hand. That was brilliant. Should have dropped the bumper instead. Lesson learned.
In case you didn't already notice this, labs have a lot more power than pointers and setters.
