Description
Leather slip leads are a type of all-in-one leash and collar designed for quick, gentle control of a dog. They are made from a single piece of leather with a loop that slips over the dog’s head, creating a collar when pulled. As the dog moves or pulls, the lead tightens slightly, providing gentle correction, and it loosens when tension is released.
Key Features:
- Easy On and Off: Slip leads don’t require clipping onto a collar; they slip on and off easily, making them convenient for training, quick outings, or when using in the show arena.
- Adjustable Fit: The loop adjusts to fit snugly, preventing the dog from slipping out without applying excessive pressure. Many slip leads also include a stopper to prevent over-tightening.
- Training Tool: Often used in training and showing, the slip lead allows for immediate feedback and control, which can help discourage pulling.
- Durability and Comfort: Leather slip leads are strong, durable, and comfortable to hold, making them suitable for dogs of all sizes. The leather’s natural give and quality construction add comfort for both the dog and handler.
Leather slip leads are popular among trainers, walkers, and working dog handlers for their practicality, strength, and ease of use.
