AK-9 Dog Slip Lead
On in seconds. No fuss.
Lead and collar in one — slip it on and go.
Skip the fiddly clip. This slip lead drops straight over your dog's head, so there's no collar or clasp to fuss with — ideal for quick trips, kennels and training. The hoop adjusts to your dog's neck by sliding the rubber stopper and stainless steel ring, and it gently trains against pulling: the hoop tightens when your dog pulls and slackens again the moment they ease off.
The firmly woven nylon rope has reflective tape woven through for night-time visibility, and the soft, ribbed handle improves grip and loops over your wrist. For tougher dogs, the flexible rope can be twisted into a figure-of-eight and slipped over the nose to act as a makeshift muzzle. Full length is 120cm, in eight bold colours, and it arrives in a reusable pull-string bag.
No clip, no collar
Slips straight over your dog's head — nothing to fuss with.
Adjustable hoop
Slide the stopper and ring to fit your dog's neck securely.
Seen after dark
Reflective tape woven into the nylon for night visibility.
AK-9 is the Vetfleece range for dogs that pull, work and walk in all weathers, and for the people holding the other end of the lead. Everything in it is built around the same idea: metal where a plastic clip would fail, a handle where you need one, and something reflective for the dark. It began with dog leads, grew into a collar and a harness, and now covers the car and the bed as well.
The hardware story
Most dog leads fail at the clip, so the range starts there. The combat clip on the Combat Clip Dog Lead clamps the moment it meets a D-ring and releases only when you press both side clips together. On the Long Traffic Control Dog Lead it is solid aircraft-grade aluminium, backed by two padded handles. The Carabiner Clip Dog Lead takes a different route: a climbing-style carabiner rated to 422kg of pulling force. The Combat Clip Dog Collar carries the same thinking round the neck, with an aircraft-grade aluminium cam-lock clasp, a welded 316 stainless steel D-ring and a close-control handle in reflective webbing. The combat clip, carabiner and traffic leads are firmly woven nylon with a ring on the handle for a treat bag, a poo-bag dispenser or a hands-free belt, and several were designed and tested in-house by our office dogs, Ruby and Boyo.
Leads for every kind of walk
The short Traffic Control Dog Lead strips out slack beside roads and in crowds, and joins to a second lead for two dogs. The Dog Slip Lead is a lead and collar in one, 120cm of reflective rope with an adjustable loop, for quick trips and kennels; fit it carefully, introduce it gradually, and keep it for dogs that walk calmly rather than dogs that lunge or pull hard. The Dog Training Lead is a long line in 5m, 10m and 20m with a 360° swivel clip, for recall work on the beach or in the field.
The harness, the dark and the car
The Dog Power Harness has a collapsible control handle, three weather layers with a neoprene inner, a curved quick-release buckle, and glow-in-the-dark patches alongside reflective stitching, in five sizes by chest measurement and 11 colours. From Medium up it carries the USB-C Rechargeable Harness Torch, a 126g zoomable torch with ten modes that also works in your hand. For journeys, the In-Car Anti-Shock Dog Safety Seat Belt plugs into the seatbelt slot and clips to the harness, never a collar, with a bungee to soften sudden braking, and AK-9 Vent Locks hold the boot ajar for airflow in four sizes, though never as a reason to leave a dog in a warm car. The Dog Car Travel Kit gathers those pieces on one page.
Rest after the walk
The High Raised Dog Bed lifts your dog onto breathable mesh on a powder-coated steel frame that dries fast and wipes clean, with an absorbent Noodle Cover for wet, muddy dogs and a Replacement Mesh Cover to keep the frame in service. You will find all three, with sizing help, in our raised dog beds category. The Pet First Aid Kit for Emergency Care, in a rugged canvas case, rounds off the range for days out.
Browse the full range of dog leads, collars and harnesses, where you will also find the harness and collar size tables if you are unsure which size to order. As with any dog gear, check clips, stitching and webbing regularly and replace anything that shows wear.
