Using this dog lead is easy. Simply attach the brass - colored swivel trigger clip to your dog's collar. Hold the hand loop for a firm and comfortable grip when taking your dog for a walk. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from sharp objects to avoid scratches on the leather. Wipe it with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. If it gets wet, dry it naturally. Don't use harsh chemicals as they may damage the leather. And always check the clip before each use to ensure it's in good working condition.
