My name is Sandra, and as an exhibitor of Lhasa Apsos, I found it exhausting to try and find a nice show lead with all the features I wanted. I loved the soft, supple kangaroo leather leads, but could never find one that was all-in-one, with a kindness collar and a resco style slide close. Or I'd find those things but not with a thumb loop or the resco collar would not stay closed. Even the simple
r, cordo-hyde leads would be offered in shops, but have cheap rhinestones which fell out or would last only a week or two in use. That's when I decided to begin making them myself and get exactly what I wanted. I had already been in the leather goods business for many years and it was natural I should just begin making my own. As an owner-handler who uses these in the ring, I'm proud to say my kindness leads are a perfect design for table breeds and all of my leads are made to last. The leather used is imported from Australia and is a product of their culling program. Derived from only a few species and from animals living in the wild, to ensure that the natural habitat is kept in tact. Australia's government oversight of this program ensures the most humane practices have been followed. Many years of studies indicate this culling program has not harmed the species, but has instead helped it to thrive.
