Dog Leash

When my Grandmother was growing up in the early 1900’s in London any dogs they owned never had such luxuries as a dog leash, not alone a collar.

Whilst researching information on leads I came across a site for the dog owner who has money to invest in a diamond collar for their beloved pooch, something else…whoa!!  I wonder if the British couple who won the Euro Millions last week have a pet fit for this kind of luxury.

Times have changed for dogs and owners alike now.  Cars are a danger to our four legged friends and as such dogs must be kept on a leash whilst out walking.

We also have greater control over our dog if they are on a leash.  But boy do they vary in price, style, chain, no chain, leather, nylon, the selection is amazing.  I was shopping yesterday and I walked by a very reasonably priced dog leash, under £2.00 (GBP) which I got for Woody as a back up.  He has a habit of showing his excitement of going for a walk by biting his lead, so we have got through a number of them now.

I’m not really one to have matching collars and leads but I am not claiming to have never done so, I would be lying.

For me and Woody the most important element is safety, so each lead is tested for strength and examined before purchase.
