An animal tethering, assistive cane, and personal defense combination device incorporating user mobility and self-defense features includes a housing that defines an interior space. A leash is coupled to the housing and is positioned in the interior space. The leash is retractable type so that a cord of the leash is selectively extensible from the housing through an aperture. A user is positioned to couple the cord to a domestic animal to leash the domestic animal. A pole that is coupled to and extends from the housing comprises a plurality of nested sections so that the pole is selectively extensible and configured to serve as a mobility aid. A stun gun that is coupled to the pole distal from the housing is configured to administer an electrical shock to an attacker to incapacitate the attacker.
