Hi,

Being a complete dog show novice & wanting to take my little lad out to a few shows next year I have been looking around at pharaoh hound show pictures and 90% of people show them in a fine show chain and lead.Could anyone point me in the direction of a show chain supplier?

Thanks

Hi

If you can't get a personal recommendation on here then it might be a good idea to attend a show for a closer look.  If you choose a biggish Championship Show you'll get a chance to have a look at your breed in the ring, ask other owners/handlers what they use, and get a feel for your preferred option.  Finally you'll probably be able to buy one there and then!

I don't use chain for my breed so I can't help on that score but if you want to look online then Hessonite is quite a good place to start, they also have a list of shows they will be attending

agree with brainless but the snake link ones do get kinks in alot that are hard to remove, but we show in one and they do look nice, but find out what colour your suppose to show in first, oh and they ant cheap lol

I must have been lucky with my snake link one - it's been fine. I've had it for about 15 years now :-)

Deva Dogware is also good, they are at many of the champ shows and also have a website.

We buddied up with another exhibiter from this site and got them to take us around the champ show stands to chose the right one, very helpful as we had no idea what to get.
Got to love the slobber!

I would go with whatever show lead suits your puppy.  I've had Pharaohs for 26 years now and I have shown some on a chain and some on a leather slip as there are quite a few who resist anythng other than the lightest touch on their necks.

Good luck with your future showing :-)
