Favourite leashes?

[starrlamia]

I absolutely love and live by Ella's Leads http://ellaslead.com/ (rope leads)
We have had several for a few years now and they hold up great and are soft on the hands too! We have a normal 6 foot walking leash and a 15 foot leash that has an extra clasp and ring so i can hook it around myself for hands free walking.
We have a bulldog and the owner of Ella's lead has a pit bull so these leads definately durable.

The kangaroo leather leashes were show leads, I believe. I used a short (1.5 m) leather leash when Tillo was still a puppy. When he knew pulling wasn't allowed, I got him a 8 m flexi for our normal walks through the neighbourhood. For obedience I use a leather police line.. I can use it as a 1 m, 1.5 m or 2 m leash, and I can hang it over my shoulder, so I have both hands free. For agility I use a hunting line. It's a one piece collar + leash, which you can easily take on and off. I also have 15 m leashes which I use when we walk on places where they are allowed to run around, but are not allowed to hunt down the foxes and deers ;)

Soooooo lots of different leashes here :D

Mine all have Rogz collars and leads. They're fairly cheap so if the Bs get the munchies they can be replaced easily. I can also colour coordinate my Bs well. Chance = Blue; Trouper = red; Benji = Black; Nakura = Pink. :)

I love my kangaroo leather lead for showing, i lost it a couple of months ago though so Maya is just borrowing one of the pug show leads…!

For general walking, its whatever i grab off the hooks lol

I use the soft slip collars and matching leads from White Pine Outfitters. I've used them for years. Very soft on the hands and great for long haired dogs (if you happen to have one of those). Don't break coat like some nylon collars and color fast.

I just love Rogz! We use them for all of our cats. They're the only collars they don't try to lose, probably because they their Mom has paid good coin for them and had to order them from thousands of miles away - got the last batch from Australia. Rogz is just not an easily found brand here.

I love the braided $8 leashes from Walmart. They come in red/black, royal/black and red/grey-reflector. They are VERY durable, most comfortable for the human( even if the dog is a puller, which BOTH our b's are) and are not easy to chew, but can be IF your son forgets to take them off when he kennels the dogs. :0

We have a collection of leashes..my favorite is this one http://www.fourpaws.com/products/nite-brite-reflective-leashes.htm, as it is very soft to hold, and it flexes just a touch when it gets tugged on too hard.
I also have several of the flexi leads, for when we are in the park or woods..love those..for exploring.

DmCarty just sent something similar to this awesome collar/lead combo to Moses and it works splendidly for Otis too. http://houndsonthego.com/.

Of course if you have a leash chewer you can't go wrong with Lupine products, they will replace it regardless of the pieces missing or how badly it looks.

Just an FYI Ella's Lead is having a 15% of sale:

At checkout, punch in code: springfever15 to receive 15% off.
This is good until April 18, 2010.
This includes our Collars for Causes, and the best part about that is the rescues still get 10% of the ORIGINAL price of their collar.

Oh I love Rogz too!!! I got quite a few when I was in Europe. They are hard to find places that sell them here in the states. I love the multi-function leashes, they don't make leashes quite like that here in the states.

We have used 6 ft leather leads with braided ends, which were nice. Also have used nylon leads from regular stores, but they are too slippery for me and the handle/loops weren't that big for hubby's hands.
So now we use Lupine leads that I have bought from vet offices or online. The handle/loops are large and padded and we like the clip end. And the feature we have had to use already that we like best: they're guaranteed even if they're chewed! Just send the leash back (don't even need the receipt) and they send you a new one. They try to even send back one in the same pattern if possible.
The website also has collars, etc.
