I have been told that the leather is much less apt to break coat as a man made fiber.  I have smooth coats, I have to rely on my friends with coated breeds for this information. Many of my leads have what I have dubbed a “gentle” choke.  In the collar directly at the throat of the dog, I have used a flat braid, instead of a round braid.   I think this a little more gentle on the throat and the coat. I have also been told Kangaroo leather leads are lucky.  Certainly not for the Roo, but in the ring they have a winning record.     To Core or Not to Core  -  THAT IS THE QUESTION!!   Cores are said to strengthen the lead and prevent excessive stretching.   I have researched the matter extensively, and talked with many whip makers, and long time braiders (who have been braiding for decades). This is what I found......... Any kind of core braided into the lead – impedes the tensile strength of the leather.  Leather stretches and it retracts.  If the leather stretches and the core doesn’t, then the entire pull exerted on the lead, is on the core, not the leather! This leather is extremely strong and you can take any size dog in the ring with complete confidence.  It is a simple matter of using the right size of leather and the proper number of strands/thongs for your breed.  This is a “Show” lead not a training lead.  It is not meant to take an untrained rambunctious dog for his nightly stroll…..
