Ipswhip 17 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Firstly, forgive me as I am an amateur but I was just wondering how slip leads work? As far as I can see the bit that goes round the neck is a strip with 2 D Rings at either end. Is this right? Also, I have heard people say that they prefer using a bit of string. How does this work? Thanks in advance Quote Link to post
Tiny 7 1,694 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 The one with the two D rings on them are for lads that run there dogs with no collars on.... And a bit of rope is just that. Make a handle burn the other end and pop it throw the dogs collar Never mind all them fancey trigger slip ect there to much hassle fellah truth me..... Atb Quote Link to post
BIGLURKS 874 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Or another way I've found go too the game fairs find the slip leads for gun dogs the cheapest ones u can find and just cut off the ring or just a bit of rope with a handle threw the collar Quote Link to post
