While you undertake a Secure Rescue canine, you MUST use a slip lead. This can maintain your canine protected: your new canine shall be nervous and won’t belief you, and you’ll not know which conditions would possibly upset your canine.
In case your canine panics, then a slip lead is the one approach to forestall your canine from escaping (many canines can escape from a collar and/or harness). It’s going to take AT LEAST 3-6 months on your canine to settle-in and so that you can know your canine totally (longer for nervous canines). The slip lead should ALWAYS be used throughout this settling-in interval.
Even after your canine is settled, it’s most secure to make use of the slip lead in conditions the place your canine could turn into scared (e.g. visiting new locations, round unfamiliar folks, on the vet), and it conditions the place sudden triggers would possibly occur (e.g. round bonfire evening). Nervous canines could at all times have to put on a slip-lead as a back-up security measure.
The slip lead is a security gadget and should NEVER be used as a coaching device. Utilizing the result in apply strain to the canine’s neck is damaging. In case your canine pulls on the lead, then we are able to advise you on coaching strategies that keep away from hurt.

Most harnesses will not be escape-proof, however harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Good Match Harnesses) are safer.
Retractable / extendable leads mustn’t ever be used on our canines.
