Troubleshooting
Trigger hook is stiff or difficult to operate
Ensure the hook is free from dirt or debris. If it persists, a small drop of lubricant on the spring mechanism might help, but avoid over-lubrication.
Nylon rope fraying slightly at ends
This is normal wear for woven ropes. Inspect regularly for significant fraying. If it becomes severe, discontinue use. Minor fraying can sometimes be secured with a lighter (use extreme caution).
Slip loop is too tight or too loose
Adjust the lead's position on your dog's neck. For a slip lead, ensure it's fitted correctly; it should slide easily when relaxed but remain snug when tension is applied. Always test the fit before use.
