Need help

Post by Joxgirl »

First the rant .... No offense to the Husband species out there
Buuuut my husband left Rogues leash at his parents house, when he dropped off his Lab. REALLY??!!!!! There is a reason I have a bitchen leash for my Dutch Shepherd!!!! So the Lab will be dog sat by the in-laws until they drop him and their Lab off to be bordered for a few days when they head up to our Utah house. Soooooo they will leave my damn good leash with the vet types. I will be lucky to get it back.
Meanwhile I don’t have my 6 foot lead, and I don’t care for my other ones that I have.
So here is where I need help.... I’m buying two leashes. Help me pick one. I want a leather one and a nylon one.
“Lead” me in the right direction.

I love my multipoint leather lead. They're hard to find though. It can be an 8 foot leash, a4 foot leash, a cross shoulder leash, etc.

I have other leashes but it’s that one leash that I love. Good places to start my search for a new leash. Thanks everyone.

Yeah, I have a leather one that's similar. Has three loops sewn in to make three different length leads. Had a nylon one just like it but lost it. The only kind I've found like it are called euro leads. Best damn leash ever. Can't figure out why it's so hard to find them.

LOL I must be hardheaded and stubborn.
I guess before and after results with dogs tend to show the effort put into them.

:dssmile: Don't forget to stress test your old leashes. Found out about hidden weakened areas from chewing the hard way. You know they plan stuff like that.
