The Official Ella's Lead Thread

[maxfox426]

I just wanted to say, that I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to order an Ella's Lead. I have my order narrowed down to my favorites and everything.

Then I had to take my car in for service and the AC needs replaced, so now I have to wait even longer until I can make my purchase. *cry*

Okay, that is all. I promise, I will order that lead eventually. I just want it NOW!

aw, well we're not going anywhere!
We're also going to start offering the tubing on our regular leads. Ben made one for Ella and I LOVE IT!

See, I'm trying to start walking her with only one collar on, so that I can build confidence in her wearing JUST ONE collar and NO back up.
You can imagine what it has taken me to get to this point. I'm serious. I am an equipment FREAK and totally paranoid when it comes to my dog.
BUT, I plan on entering her in an ADBA fun show next year, and I want to be comfortable only having her in a collar and leash because that's all that is allowed for you to have them in while they're in the ring.

So...I'm check and rechecking ALL my collars and putting her in them and attempting to pull them off her to make sure she CANNOT back out of them.
Because that's what she'll try to do.

Anyway, yeah, so I made a new leash for her and it is our regular leads with the tubing over the clamps.
It's just a black one with a stainless bull snap.

Will you still offer the regular leads without the tubing? I like the look of the clamps on the regular leads I've gotten thus far.

Regular leads with tubing?? AWESOME! I saw the couple that you had displayed on the website with the tubing, and I was a little bummed because none of them were ones that really fit Morgan's color scheme. Now I have even more choices to make when the time comes! Hoorah!

Good luck with the collars! I'm sure it will be fine. I have noticed in my few months on Chaz that you are very particular with Ella and her equipment, and I'm sure you will have the one-collar thing down pat by the time she's ready for ADBA next year. If there is anything I've learned about you, you are NOT one to be underprepared. EVAR. So I have complete faith that it will all work out.

Thanks!

Yes, regular leads with tubing. BUT, you have to know, that the regular clamps aren't round like the ones on the small leads, so it looks slightly different because the regular clamps are rectangular and flat.
It still looks neat. I would have had him put on a more fun color than just black, but this way the leash doesn't detract from her in the ring.

Any pictures?
Can't you do the 3/4in diameter ,normal size leash without the clamp?.

That's okay if they look different. I just like the tubing.

unfortunately, no. 3/4" is too thick.
We can only make them with the clamps.

Any news on getting pink rope for the small leads?

No pink rope for small leads.

 

[MericoX]

Pink tubing? Kiba needs pink to match her new collar!!!

 

[Chewbecca]

We have a light red tubing that can appear pink.

That red tubing is magical. It looks red on red rope and pink on pink rope. Weird.

At any rate, I have just edited the site. There is a price-drop across the board on a few of our snap choices and one addition.

The NP-Spring Snap is now $0.00 add-on. The SS Spring Snap and the big Brass Spring Snap are now only $1.00 add-on. The Ella's Fool-Proof Lead hardware is now incorporated into all the snap choice drop-down menus. AND it is now all Stainless Steel (ring and quick-link).

The price-drop comes about because of better inventory control. Plus it's a big up-yours to the constantly increasing cost of everything else in your life. We'll hold the line as long as we can.
