Collar Or No Collar

[Robie_n 10]

How do you's go lamping without a collar when it comes to slipping the dog on quary/game? My labs don't wear collars incase they they get snagged in a bush or if there in the water on a branch, me lurch pup has 1 on comes in handy fro grabbing him

I do and tbh I don't personally know anyone that doesn't,70lb dogs straining on a bit of rope round its neck don't appeal to me.

all dogs dont strain some will stand patiently and wait to be slipped, the same as some dogs will walk to heal yet you see others pulling owners across the fields,

rope lead, just take it off when you want to slip it, its just as quick once you get use to doing it. why do you need to grab a collar the dog naturally has a scruff if you feel the need to take hold,

I thought it'd be a chew with a slip lead getting the dog off warl keeping the lamp on, lol the pups to quick for me to grab his scruff when he's having a lunge at sumat or sum one, hell learn though

Also my mates bitch does back flips when another dog is running and she worked out how to get out off a slip lead so collar and rope works for her

Never heard so much bollox in my life.............collars are a accident waiting to happen !! Pffft, in 30 odd years of running lurchers I've never had a collar related accident, seen a few hit trees, get run over and run off quarrys but never had a collar accident.

There is that Paul but I don't think anybody is putting there dog in danger by having one on though.

not the reason i dont use them, i just dont feel they're necessary, we have all heard the stories but i did find my mates cocker dead in the back of his van hanging from its collar after it had got hung up on a bolt on a tool rack

I always used a traditional slip lead, no need for collar or rope then.....do people not use them anymore?

[bird 9,927]

I know [bANNED TEXT] ur saying juke but that was very unlucky, I never used to run dogs in collars but I do now partly coz I lost my slip lead but also it's quite handy if u need to pull the dog off anything
