    By far this is the best slip lead on the market! We love it and would never use another brand!

    Oh my goodness, it was an immediate change in pulling, I did add the figure 8 nose loop as recommended by someone…but he walks so pretty now, perfect heel at my knee…..and the lead is beautiful too.

    We love the bubble and spike slip lead! Although I have large dogs, we use the mini, my dogs are able to walk at my heel and do not pull. This lead is the only one that stays high on their necks and I feel it would be impossible for them to slip out! It is also easy to remove the knot and use it as a drag leash or a longer lead for adventures!

    I already have 2 of these leashes. I love them! I decided to get the black one for walking rescue dogs daily at Apollo Rescue. The black one won’t show dirt as quickly. The best thing about this leash is the sliding mechanism. It slides easily and stays in place. I highly recommend this leash!

    Very well constructed, gorgeous slip lead that feels luxurious and premium. After using it for a week, my dog has seen a remarkable improvement in pulling/behavior. Thanks, Bubble & Spike! Highly Recommend.

    This is seriously (SERIOUSLY) the best lead I have ever had the pleasure of using. I have shown, worked with, and walked dogs for most of my life, and when I tell you I have used every lead out there… not even kidding. After getting a severe rope burn from a popular flat lead I decided enough was enough and I went on the hunt for a classic round slip lead that would never let me down. I found it! It’s yours! If you are on the fence about this lead… just get it. The thickness is perfection and the fact that I can adjust it to not slip down on my wild GSD’s neck is priceless.
