My Cleo is Golden, so i will be getting a lead to as close to her colour as I can, they say the lead should not detract away from your dog so for me i want it to blend with her, I hope that helps.

I use a black show lead on my blue roan boy.  You could use a white lead until you get a new black one.

Snoopy has a dark Grey Leather Show lead as he's dark blue roan, but Rocky when I get it being b&t will have black.  I know other fellows who show their blue roans, have contrasting colours such as Red and Blue, but most I think are shown in black.

We have just got a white one for Mupps - she is orange roan too.  I did buy a lovely leather one, but A) she keeps escaping out of it and it looked really clumpy on her shoulder line.  I am sure you will be fine to show in white too.

Just wanted to add on to my comments that I made it sound like we weren't getting anywhere because of her clumpy lead, sadly we are just not getting anywhere regardless of lead colour!

We only sow blacks and they are shown with a black leather lead 
alot of people who show blues show them on a red lead not sure why but it looks quite nice
aslong as they arent too bright you should be fine

Hiya,
i know people like to do one of three things, either the lead blends in with the dog or contrasts the dog the other is to match what they are wearing.
I have had some strange orders but i do whatever people want you see.
Oh a little plug i will be branching into making customised leather martingale show leads.

Yes, generally junior handlers are advised to have the lead matching their clothes.

Personally I like to use a lead that blends into the dog, so it doesnt detract from them...however...I guess if you are very clever with things like that you can use a contrasting lead to highlight a dogs good points?

and some people will use a contrasting one to 'trick' the eye that the dog has a better layback of shoulder than it really has.
