FAQs
Is this lead safe for all dog breeds?
It is suitable for most breeds, but it is best suited for dogs that have mastered basic leash manners or are currently undergoing training.
Does this lead come in different lengths?
The Jack Pyke Traditional Dog Slip Lead is specifically designed at a standard 150cm length.
Can I leave this lead on the dog while they are unattended?
No. Slip leads should never be left on a dog when they are unsupervised, as the loop could potentially tighten if snagged on an object.
Will the nylon fray over time?
While the braided nylon is highly durable, it may show minor wear if it is regularly dragged over sharp rocks or abrasive surfaces.
Is the leather binding real or synthetic?
The lead features stitched leather binding, providing a classic, high-quality finish.
Troubleshooting
Lead feels too stiff after washing
Once dry, flex the nylon material and work the leather binding with your hands to restore softness.
Leather stopper slips during walks
Ensure the stopper is positioned correctly and that the lead is not being constantly pulled by the dog; if it continues to slip, check for debris inside the leather hole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the slip lead, simply open the loop wide and pass it over the dog's head. Slide the leather stopper toward the neck until the lead is snug but not tight. Always ensure the stopper is positioned to prevent the loop from opening too wide or cinching too tightly.
Care instructions are straightforward: due to the leather binding, it is best to avoid machine washing. Instead, rinse the nylon under cool, clean water if it becomes muddy and hang it to air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the leather components. Periodically check the stitching for signs of fraying to ensure the lead remains safe for use.
