AKC Show collar question

[vcroft0313]

So I was outside working with Pepper on our conformation skills. I had her in a fursaver with a 6ft pliable leather leash. But, I found the fursaver to be rather clunky and hard to work with.
I also have a Mendota British show slip lead. It's 1/8" by 6 ft. But I don't know if it is substantial enough.
I also have the regular choke chains with the small links that I could use with the leather leash.
So my question is what would you or do you use?
Thanks.

That would depend on the temperament and training that the dog has had. If I had a hard pulling dog, I would use a regular chake chain of medium weight with a 6 foot leather lead. If the dog was better trained or pulled less hard, a lighter weight chain or a nylon collar would work well. if the dog was of a softer nature, a martingale type collar would be easier on the dog. They are all acceptable in the ring.
