Professional Insight
Training Academy Tip 💡
Keep a slip lead in every coat you own. The moment you have to search for a lead is the moment your dog learns that the lead appearing is unpredictable — and unpredictability creates anxiety. A lead that appears consistently, calmly and quickly becomes a positive signal: something good is about to happen. At £7.95, buying three or four of these and distributing them across your kit is one of the best small investments you can make in your training consistency.

FAQs
What size dogs is this lead suitable for?
The slip design adjusts to fit dogs of all neck sizes. Position the loop high on the neck just behind the ears and adjust the rubber stop for a snug, comfortable fit.
Is this lead suitable for training?
Yes — slip leads are the standard choice for gundog training. The quick on-and-off design and clear communication make them ideal for training sessions. Position the loop high on the neck for the best control and feedback.
Why does it come with no packaging?
The Bisley Slip Lead is sold without packaging — it's a straightforward, no-frills product at a fair price. No packaging means less waste and a lower price point, which is exactly right for an everyday working lead.
Which colour should I choose?
Green and Natural are the most popular choices for field use as they blend with country clothing. Royal Blue and Red are easier to spot if you put the lead down — useful on busy training days or shooting grounds.
