Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply attach the metal snap hook to the D-ring of your dog's collar or harness. To ensure longevity, keep the lead dry when not in use. If the lead becomes soiled during a walk, it can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild, pet-safe soap. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may degrade the integrity of the recycled fibers. Periodically inspect the snap hook for any debris or stiffness, applying a small amount of lubricant if the spring mechanism becomes sluggish. Store in a cool, dry location out of direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading over extended periods.
