I have a horrible feeling I have managed to lose Ellie's show lead & collar, I am quite gutted as I've had it nearly her whole life. :-( I originally got them from Deva Dogware but I don't think they are around any more. I've put a post on the show society's page, but I would have walked her out to the car, and it's not in the car or the show bag or anywhere I can see in the house, so I have a horrible feeling I must have managed to drop it in the grass where I was parked.
Anyway, can people recommend a good place for a new one? I'm quite fussy and hate change haha. My old one was separate lead and collar, so for a start it will be a nightmare as nearly all the ones I ever see at shows are all in one. I like a fine chain collar (she's a Cavalier) as a coloured one, even black, breaks up her outline at the neck as she is black and white there. So I like the plain metal half check collar. For the lead I am not keen on the round cord ones that seem so popular now, I've shown my friend's dogs with them and they just don't feel as comfortable. I like a flat approx 4mm wide plain black lead, not stretchy (though I might be tempted into a bit of subtle bling). I don't know if anyone sells anything like this now, or if I will have to face the prospect of change!
