Sizing & measuring+

Every piece is made to your dog's exact measurements. Use the Measuring Guide to get it right first time.

If the size isn't right, message me — size exchanges and amendments are available.

Hardware & construction+

Every snap, D-ring and slider is load-tested by its manufacturer. Brass develops a patina over time — a feature, not a fault.

Send it back to me. If the hardware fails in the first twelve months I'll repair or replace it free. After that, send it back any time and I'll replace worn parts at cost plus postage.

Delivery & lead time+

Your order enters the making queue immediately. Current lead time is 2–6 working days before dispatch.

All UK orders ship tracked. Free tracked shipping over £55.

Returns & exchanges+

Made to your measurements. Because I cut this to the size you give me, it isn't covered by the usual 14-day change-of-mind right — I can't resell it, so I can't take it back simply because you've changed your mind. If the size isn't right, message me: size exchanges and amendments are available. If anything arrives faulty, damaged or not as described, that's on me — I'll repair, replace or refund it and cover the postage. The full position is on my returns and guarantee page.

I'd far rather spend ten minutes with you before I start than have to alter it afterwards, so read the measuring guide, and if you're unsure about anything, email me first: hello@greendog.pet. The person who made it will reply.

About this piece

Figure of 8 Slip Lead | 6mm Rope | Customisable | Green Dog

The most effective training lead most owners have never tried. A figure of 8 slip lead gives you calm, responsive control by working with your dog's natural sensitivity, not against it.

The loop fits gently over the nose and behind the ears simultaneously, distributing any signal across two points rather than one. The result is clearer communication with less effort, which is why trainers reach for the figure of 8 when everything else stops working.

Built from 6mm premium rope with a BioThane® slider for precise, adjustable fit. Light enough for small breeds, strong enough for dogs that pull. Every piece is finished by hand at the Oxford studio, the whipping, the knots, the hardware check, before it leaves.

Fully customisable. Choose your rope colour, binding colour, hardware finish and lead length to make it exactly yours.

Finally no more pulling!

After months of pulling, trying various combinations and tricks and getting really frustrated, we found the perfect solution with the figure of 8 lead. It works perfectly with our 1 year old German wire haired pointer, who has got a massive prey drive. Highly recommendable!

Beautiful Quality Lead

The quality of the item is absolutely wonderful. The seller was incredible helpful with some questions I had. I'm very glad I paid the extra over Amazon, a better item by far and fantastic to support UK businesses.

Amazing lead well crafted and built to last. Has improved our dogs pulling and is a night and day difference. Hard to find things nowadays that isn't crappy quality from china but This is great quality and craftsmanship.
