Slip leads are kind and gentle

This is Lolly the lurcher who came in to us a while ago.   She is a kind and gentle dog who is even quite good with cats.   Many of the greyhound types we get are cat chasers and we have to be very careful.

It’s easy to put a slip lead on Lolly when we take her out for a walk.   We like them because they are soft and easy to handle.   A collar and lead is fine for a proper walk but just a quick jaunt out and nothing could be better – the lead slips on in a second and you can take it off just as quickly if you want to let your dog have a run.   The soft braided rope is easy to put in a pocket till you’re ready for back on the lead and home.

They come in a variety of colours and one size fits all, except for the really tiny tots who have specially made slip leads for them.   You can buy the slip leads from our online shop – and every purchase helps the sanctuary.   Anything that is easy to use and is comfortable for the dogs is good by us!
