Can I see your nice show-leads...and ask where you got htem? - Maltese Dogs Forum : Spoiled Maltese Forums

I have one show lead for Bravo - just to have one to start in conformation classes. I'll need a really nice one for our first puppy match (late January).

What do you have that you love? Where did you get it?

Thanks, guys!!

Do you use a kindness lead for Papillions? For maltese, we use those. I am not a fan of those huge beaded leads because they slip off from around my neck and it irks me.

I like this one, it is just a subtle bling

There were be a lot of vendors at Eukanuba and you can have fun shopping!

Yes, the kindness ones are acceptable....that's what I have for conformation classes starting next week.

Hmmmm....hadn't thought about the beaded ones being a P.I.T.A. that way. Darn!!

I was watching some videos of Pap classes, and people had some nice leads...

What's a kindness leash? Is it because of pad on neck?

Frustatingly, my favorite lead is a leather one I bought at a show and I can not find the vendor now (I am hoping I will get to go to the same show this year and find them again there). The link Stacy posted has similar ones in the leather, but the one I found is a bit less expensive. Good show leads are a challenge and everyone has their different ones that they prefer. I would encourage you to look at vendors at the shows.

I always enjoy watching the Papillons in the ring.

That's a good idea! We are going to attend the Eukanuba show on Dec. 14th.

My husband was asking about getting one for me for Xmas (or my birthday on 1/7) - I forgot there will be vendors.

Yayyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!! Lots of fun things in time for Xmas &&&&&&&& birthday!!!

I'm not always a big fan of those ones with the plastic slider clamp, esp with an unruly or one that likes to balk because they can loosen quicker than the rescoe ones with the metal clasp thing and your lead slipping off your dog in the ring is never a good look :P

**Avec Bravissimo** · 12-02-2012, 05:24 PM

Lord, girl!!! You and I are going to do some shopping together at the show!!!

I can NOT risk looking like a Clampet in the ring!!!!
