Functionality's& Features
Originated in England, the Slip Lead is a time tested traditional training tool. It is a Leash & Collar As One in one easy to use package.

Slip Leads are available in a variety of colors with Realtree® Camo leather and Non-Camo leather as well.

Our sample was an attractive Polypropylene Cordage in a sort of a green camo mix with Realtree® Hardwoods leather. This type of Polypropylene Cordage is beneficial for several reasons:

• it floats on water
• it is UV-Protected
• it is soft yet extremely tough
• it coils easily when you need to put it in your pocket

Furthermore, a closer inspection has revealed other features that may not seem crucial, but they add durability and value to this clever product. Unlike other similar product on the market Sam's Dog Hut Slip Lead has:

• leather from top-quality cowhides
• the leather tabs are sewn + glued (with a special glue) ensuring that they won't fall apart or come loose
• larger handles resulting in less stress and comfort even when using heavy gloves
• folded Bone-Shaped® adjustable camo leather neck slider
• true to their size - a 4 footer is a 4 footer, a 6 footer is a true 6 footer and not a few inches short.
  

FIELD TEST: How did it work for us
We tested the Slip Lead on "Toby" our purebred yearling Yellow Labrador Retriever. The Slip Lead .... slips on the neck of the dog easily and can be quickly adjusted for maximum collar size by sliding the adjustable Folded Bone-Shaped®leather neck slider up or down the leash. In doing so you will encounter a positive resistance which guarantees that the keeper will remain in the position you selected. Using the slip collar this way allows you to take advantage of the "choking" mechanism of the cordage. However, unlike metal choke collars which have the tendency to ruin the hair when used frequently, this Slip Lead had no problem in this sense at all.
Toby seemed to grasp the idea of the new slip collar leash right away, responding better to the combination of voice + slip collar leash commands than the traditional style leash. He is still a young dog so his performance of commands is not always immediate or correct; yet, with a quick tug of the Slip Lead, Toby was able to easily understand and obey my commands without the raising of voices, or stronger reminders.

Final Comments
A great product. Easy to use and effective. Dog owners will want one in all their vehicles. Perfect length so no need to fumble with the leash or deal with extra material. Keeps the dog's attention for training while it is easy to use for taking a casual stroll. Slip Lead is easy on the hand with a very comfortable grip and texture. [It is also easy on the voice ... no need to raise it, just a small tug].

• positive grip
• attention to details and good manufacturing
• intuitive and effective use

The Slip Lead has quickly become our first choice when selecting the dog collar. Day in / day out a simple, effective, well manufactured product for every dog owner.
