Re: Moxon lead That's one of the ones mum saw yesterday Barbara! I think I prefer the one Karen has. I am tempted to make mum get Lilly this one... http://www.amazon.de/Retrieverleine...ie=UTF8&qid=1384278258&sr=8-18&keywords=moxon
Re: Moxon lead I would if I were you Sophie, although the ones Helen found on hilost look the same and even have a metal insert - no purple though which would look nice on our black dogs
Re: Moxon lead I was horrified to read on the amazon.de website one of the reviews saying the Moxon lead i bought was a good lead for teaching a big, strong dog that pulls on the lead to walk to heel I wrote a very firm review, saying it is an excellent lead, but only for dogs that already walk well to heel, and that to use it otherwise is dangerous!
Re: Moxon lead Yeah Barbara. We have a purple collar and lead for Lilly because people could never tell if she was a girl or boy, and that really got on my nerves (it shouldn't because how are they supposed to know, but it just did) Lol
Re: Moxon lead [quote author=LillyLab link=topic=3261.msg35114#msg35114 date=1384280156] Yeah Barbara.

Re: Moxon lead [quote author=Stacia link=topic=3261.msg35140#msg35140 date=1384284570] Charlie, yes that does help thank you, will order one tomorrow ;D [/quote] Glad I can help someone at last Stacia. Helen x
Re: Moxon lead I really like the look of these moxon leads, it could be a christmas present for puzzle. But only if she learns to walk nicley, some days she is brilliant others she is a lunatic, but we are slowly getting there. They look very smart and soft on the hand
Re: Moxon lead Charlie, thank you so much for the link to Hie Lost, I emailed them and have received a super one this morning, just what I have been wanting for ages. I also asked if they had one of 1m length, rather than the 1.4m on the site, and they did, perfect

[/quote] I couldn't agree more with this - when I was migrating away from the harness that was giving me so many problems, and Charlie still hated the flat collar (well, he still does), a slip lead was all that worked for us. But he was still lunging from time to time and I honestly had nightmares about the damage a slip lead could do and spent a huge amount of time being ready to restrain him with my hands. It's just too easy to forget that slip leads have a choke action. They would have been completely unsuitable in the early days when I was bumbling through teaching a puppy to walk on a lead, although no doubt safer in the hands of the competent!

Re: Moxon lead Yes, very, very good service from Hie Lost. Also it was the very lead I have been looking for!
