Collarways is launching what it claims is the only lead on the market with a real security feature. Visitors to PATS Harrogate will be able to view the product called Safespot.

Gabriela Lerner, of Collarways said: "Did you know that in the USA over 2 million dogs are stolen each year. More than cars or bicycles! And less than 10% are recovered. Dog theft is an increasing threat in the UK as well, with dogs being reported as stolen every day. 

"Dogs are stolen and held for ransom, for resale, for sale to testing labs, or to keep. For use as bait in dog fights and killed in cult rituals. This is a problem occurring all across the country. Just do a Google search on 'stolen dogs' or 'dog theft'.

"Safespot is the perfect everyday lead and the only lead on the market with a real security feature. With a steel cable-reinforced core, dog owners will have peace-of-mind on those short occasions when they have no choice but to leave their dog unattended. The patented design securely locks the dog to an immovable object or it can be used as a daily walking lead without using the security feature."

Safespot is a fully-adjustable collar and lead in one.  It is another innovative product from the makers of PAWZ disposable boots and 1Z dog coat with built in harness.  Distributed in the UK by Collarways Limited. www.collarways.com 0845 4568395
