hounddog3 751 Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Remember buying one in 1979 out of the shooting times think it was called the altcar courseing slip all leather with a brass barrel that the collar attached to it was well made and a lot of money for the time and in all honesty a bag of shite.your right I bought 1 20 years ago hanging in the shed polish it every year but never on a dog a bit of rope is better might put it on ebay some day.lol Quote Link to post

slip lead 862 Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 A lot of people that use a slip lead, prefer to run there dogs without a collar. I don't like how a length of rope whipps the dog when slipped. Quote Link to post
Dewclaw69 484 Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) i had something like this about 20 years ago. worked fine but a bugger to get back on the dog when your hands are freezing cold. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Greyhound-Lurcher-Whippet-coursing-toggle-quick-release-collar-lead-/161389211934?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Kitchen_Steamers_Cookers_PP&hash=item25938bf11e as mentioned above they may cause hassle with the law if you get pulled. all i use now is a flat 1/2" nylon lead with the clip cut off and the end burnt to stop it fraying. does mean using a collar though Edited August 9, 2014 by robs5230 Quote Link to post
