1. What is a custom Leather Lurcher Collar?

All Hamilton Hounds Leather Lurcher Collars are custom made for each dog. The collars will tighten in a similar fashion to martingale collars. These collars are typically just over 2 inches wide at the widest part and taper down to 1.5 inches on each side. All Hamilton Hounds Leather Lurcher Collars feature high quality cowhide leather, cast or welded nickel and brass hardware, solid brass or nickel over brass double cap rivets, and are stitched in an industry standard “Box” stitch pattern with bonded nylon thread for maximum safety and peace of mind.

2. What is a custom Lure Coursing Slip Lead?

All Hamilton Hounds Lure Coursing Slip Leads are custom made for each dog. Slip leads are used to release your dog during lure coursing racing events. Finished slip leads will be just over 2 inches wide regardless of ribbon width and have a 4ft. soft nylon-webbing leash. All Hamilton Hounds Leather Slip Leads feature high quality cowhide leather, flat nylon webbing, cast nickel and brass hardware, and are stitched in an industry standard “Box-X” stitch pattern with bonded nylon thread for maximum safety and peace of mind.

3. How do I measure?

Premade items: When measuring remember that these collars slide over the dogs head so be sure to purchase one large enough to fit over the widest part of their head. Most of the pre-made collars are made to fit necks in the Medium 12-18 inch since this is the majority of what is sold. Collars can also be made in a Small (Fits 10-15 inch) Large (14-22 inch), XL (20-26) and custom sizes upon request.

If you are purchasing a Custom Leather Lurcher or Custom Slip lead a detailed description and a picture is provided along with a place to leave your measurement(s) after you select which trim you want. Click here for how to measure. When looking at the picture: Measurement A is the widest part of your dogs heads, this is needed so the collar can slip over your dogs head. Measurement B is taken around the neck directly behind the ears, this is needed so the collar will tighten correctly if they pull or try to back out of the collar. Measurement C is taken around the neck where you would like the collar rest.
