How To Choose a Showlead
Shopping for a showlead for the first time? Choosing the proper showlead for your dog is an important part of your showing regimen. The proper lead will not only allow you to show your dog to its highest potential, it will also highlight and accentuate its most prominent features.
We have a wide variety of showleads to choose from, but with a little bit of research and time you will be able to find the best fit for you and your dog; here's how:
Talk to other exhibitors and handlers that show the same breed and variety of dog as you do. Experienced handlers will have had years of experience and will have experimented with a variety of lead types. They should be able to offer you advice on which type of lead is commonly used in your breed. Or check out what we recommend for your breed HERE
Here at Handlers you have the opportunity to design your own lead.
Here is a step by step guide on how:
Measure your dogs neck, under the jawline and behind the ears. Then take another measurement around the widest part of its head, the ears. You can find the size of lead you seek, in our size chart, See HERE.
Browse through Our Products and see if we have the type of lead you seek on offer. If not, send us a query, there is a good possibility that we can make it for you anyway.
When you find the lead you like, follow the instruction on each page on how to design your lead. You will get multiple options to choose from:
-
Size selection
-
Color. For leads for smaller sized breeds, you need only choose once. But if the lead is medium, for a medium sized breed and braided, you can choose up to three colours in the braid. You can also choose different colors for cord and ribbon if you wish.
-
Color of the trimmings. For the trimmings you can choose between either Gold or Silver colors.
-
Color of the handle. Choose the color you think will fit for your lead. All leads have the option of removing the handle. Check out our instructions video "How the Handlers Handy Handle works"
That is if you like a little
