Guest long-tail Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 only ever seen a purpose made slip used once,well actualy im lying it was used all night at every gate hedge obstacle even just walking along,obviously accidental as the clip seemed to have a mind of its own, waste of time if you ask me the lad binned it after that first night,mind you could never see the need id ever want 4 dogs out so good luck coming up with an alternative,failing that up your training,4 dogs walking to heel might take some doing 1 Quote Link to post
