Will red not distract away from him?

if he's jet black then no. always showed my tri on a red lead.its down to personal prference.

I use a hide and collars kangaroo leather lead for Maya who is tri. It is black and dark brown plaited

Here's the best pic I have of it:



If not leather, then a white fabric lead would be my second choice

You could try and match it to the coat colour where the collar would be. If he's white there then a while lead, if he's black there then a black lead.

You could even go for something totally different, I know many gold lhasa's that are shown with a black nylon lead, it doesn't stop them doing well. I tried to match the colours as best I could but the leather leads got darker with age and now are nothing like the dogs.

always found if the dog is of quality don't matter what colour the lead is x as said earlier lead colour is down to personal preference.

I use mostly leather leads for my dogs but it is definitely personal preference. I would go with what you like best and you think your dog goes best in.

I asked someone once what colour was best to show a red fawn italian greyhound and they told me a red lead. I think he looks awful in red but looks smart with a black lead. Were as the unregistered italian who is blue and white looks really smart in a red lead.

A lovely lady from the sheltie forum is going to have a look for a adjustable nylon half check for me then I can buy the leather one when Aiden's fully grown.

you'll see plenty of stalls at Crufts,also have have a look at what the other sheltie peeps use. I prefer a small linked choke chain with a green lead for Dexter, others prefer half checked, some use leather slips
