Since these kids think I have show dogs now and they love doing the shows I suppose I better get them some show leads. Where can a guy get some of these?

Joe, Can easily make a show lead cheap using some flat ribbon rope, tie a loop on each end and put a rubber washer or strong bead to slide down on one loop. Any small rope can work but I prefer the 1/4 or 3/8 flat ribbon rope. Can easily make show leads cheap. If you don't want the knot in the rope you can use some fabric glue and strong thread or fishing line to glue and sew the loops. Cheapest and fastest way to have great show leads. 4' long is usually long enough for a show lead. Can make 4 leads from a 20 ft length of rope and a pack of washers, About the cost of one lead ordered through a catalog. Soft cotton ribbon rope works best.

Can also get show leads through most of the mail order places like Foster and Smith. May also find a few at Pet Smart, etc

If you don't have any luck with that send me a pm with your address and I will send you some home made leads or at least some good rope and washers to make em with.

Cherrybrook Show Dog Supply is where I get my show leads, they have a variety of different types to choose from too. Homemade ones work just as well, I've seen them made from shoe strings, but if you're wanting a real one this is a good place to get one.
