The Detroit show is coming up fast and there should be a good variety of vendors. I need to start getting a few supplies, so we'll be swinging by. I wondered what everyone is using for show leads. 25 years ago the biggest decision was white or black, heavy or lightweight. Now there seems to endless choices.
Do I pick a color which matches my dogs coat, contrasts the coat or wildly grabs the judges attention?
Should the lead be a one piece or go with a collar and seperate lead?
Should the collar be mesh, leather or fine herringbone chain?
I shopped a little when we were at the Novi show and the choices blew me away. I tried to pay attention while watching Westmeinster, but everyone was using something different. I'd be interested to see what works for others.
