there is a guy on here that makes slip leads and collers and they look the part and they are very well priced. have a look in the for sale section

i use any kind of greyhound/lurcher collar and just use string or an old dog lead with the end cut off as a slip cant beat it in my eyes, atb mexlad.

I'm not a big fan of a running dog wearing a collar while working, once had a dog take a dew claw off on his collar while turning old long ears, if you are gonna use 1 i would go for light as possible mate.

strong stuff mate best there is

[Water Badger 26]

Strong stuff are nice bit weighty for pup but after 6months one of his and a bit of string or thin climbing assessory corde £1 per meter get lots of bits as you will lose lots leave a bit in every trouser pocket then you are prepared

I do like the look of strong stuffs because he uses nylon instead of leather. My dogs destroy the leather just playing together and when it gets wet and muddy I have to clean and maintain them which happens a lot.

Always had leather collars, they have never worn down and become thin to the point of throwing away. Infact when I say ALWAYS, they are the same ones passed down to my current dogs.

so which is best to go for the 1.5" or the 2"? for a lurcher. he`s not a bull x and not massively built. 24" tts and has a very skinny neck.

 

i always thought the wider the better for lurchers, grays or whippets but on the website the lurcher is wearing the thinner collar.

 

also is there any benefit to a weighted collars while general walking/training?
