Earlier this week I was discussing dog leashes with a friend. When we had a pet dog we always used a basic nylon leash or a retractable. After raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind for several years I’ve become spoiled by good leather leashes. I still love retractables and we use simple nylon leashes around the house but for anything else there is nothing like a good leather leash. When we got Apex we received this cool leash with two clips and an extra ring so the leash can be long or short. If you’ve never tried one of these I highly recommend them. A fellow puppy raiser has started making them, so if you are interested go to her website. The type we use with the puppies is the versatile dog leash.
I absolutely love the leashes that we get when we take our dogs home from GDB. I am a guide dog handler have never “seen” a leash like this before but again, really just love them. GDB sells them for $16.00 here: http://store.guidedogs.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=12
They are great leashes. I can’t imagine going back to what I used before with our pet dog. Thanks for the link to the GDB gift shop for the leashes.
