Roxy Lady Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Just wondering about martingale leads. How are they worn? Is it like a slip around the dogs nose and also a slip around their neck?? Sorry hard to explain, but maybe a bit like a halti? Is it used to stop pulling like as in horses? what other reasons are they used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoL Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I can't recommend them enough - I've just got Sunny one - she HATES check chains, slip collars and also show collars but she's loving the martingale because it feels like a normal collar for her - I love it because she walks nicely while giving me some sort of correction if she pulls ahead or puts her head down without making me feel like I'm going to decapitate her LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxy Lady Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 Oh, i didn't realise that was a martingale collar!! I saw one on a website and they had the lead shown but it was curled up so i couldn't really see, i thought there looked like 3 loops, 1 for your hand, 1 for around the dogs nose and 1 for around the neck, i thought it would work similar to a horses martingale by not allowing them to get their head up and go I've actually used them before . Thanks Sway ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
