Wouldn't bother buying one, if you were to get a pull when you'r out, one of the things that they will nail you with is a slip lead,they'll say you'r using it for coursing.

Useless !! Believe me; I bought the full length one at the last Waterloo Cup, and was given the short one; both useless. If the dog twists or the catch hits your leg or another dog or whatever it opens and the dog is off !! Also the spring weakens very quickly and it becomes a liability !! As others have said..... a collar and a piece of nylon, bailing twine, pull-thru cord, eyc, is far better and far cheaper !!

 

Cheers.

Good reply, I was begining to think it was just me that let their dogs hunt, every body seems to slip dogs here and their,WHY keep a lurcher if you'r not going to let it hunt, you'd be as well walking the parks with a greyhound.

You can buy these from a guy on ebay ,i use them find them quite handy.

If you do decide to buy one get one that is hand stiched and not rivet

iv had both rivet ones are cheap muck.The guy on ebay sells hand made

ones with german steel very strong.

 

His ebay name is show dog working dog, just type in slip lead on ebay and

it should come up.

 

Hope this helps atb.

train them not to pull youre arm off then, there nothing worse than a dog that pulls you around a feild.

If you want another one just ask, ive got one in the dog cupboard, i put it in there 30 mins after buying it and curse every time i see it lol, there shite man, always slip when you dont want them to etc.

 

I sew a piece of nylon with a wring at one end just enough to squeeze my hand through (tight so you dond drop it) then another at the other end just enough to put your finger through (helps keeping the dog under control) also allows you to give a little check now and again.
