Optifit Headcollar - Stop Your Dog Pulling on the Leash. Adjustable, Reflective and Lightweight, with Padded Nose Band. Dog Training Anti-Pull Collar for Medium Dogs (Size Medium)

We have a Small Munsterlander, similar to a German Shorthaired Pointer. He is very smart, very energetic, and is hard to contain on a short leash. We have done lots of hunting dog training with him, he works really well in the field, but is challenged by having to stay so close to us on a leash. We have previously tried traditional leashes, slip leashes, a shoulder harness, and a "figure 8" leash. None of them worked, and yet we know our dog is trainable. I knew that we needed a leash that would put some pressure on his face as a deterrent, but I didn't want to hurt him, and didn't want to sue a choke chain. The Halti changed the way our dog walked in ONE DAY! I took some time to fit him correctly in it, it slips over his snout, and then clasps high on his head behind his ears. It is adjusted under his chin to ensure that it is secure, but NOT tight or uncomfortable. I gave him a treat at this point. He can eat, drink, and act completely normally while he wears it. When it is time to walk him, a traditional leash clips onto a hook under his chin, not around his neck. Immediately, when the dog started pulling forward, the leash forced his head to turn, because it is clipped directly under his chin. It isn't painful for him, and it doesn't create any pressure, it just makes his head turn left. He immediately felt this was annoying enough not to repeat. Again, it is not PAIN that is making him stop, it's annoyance. There is no benefit to tugging harder rather than lighter. Now that he is used to the leash, he does sometimes forget his composure and start to pull forward again, sometimes walking with tension in the leash (but not nearly as much tension as every other leash we tried, where my hands would be raw after a walk!). I don't want him to get used to this, so I give a quick flick/tug on the leash so that his head turns, and he remembers how much he hates doing that. On particularly bad instances, for example seeing a squirrel, when he lunges forward, the leash turns his head so fast that he ends up turning around. Again, this is really annoying for him, so he doesn't want to repeat that behavior. Altogether, he now gets MORE walks, MORE treats, and spends less time panting from pulling so hard. I strongly feel there is NO PAIN for either of us when we walk with the Halti. THANK YOU HALTI!

While this doesn't work for my girl due to her being over sensitive, this is a great TEMPORARY tool to help your dog learn not to pull, or a full time tool if you have a service dog and need the feedback. It's highly adjustable and i think i prefer this over the gentle leader in appearance and with the reflectiveness. I think it's also good if you have dogs that slip out. I will be keeping mine to donate or use on a future dog simply because i suffer from chronic illness and various other things where having more feedback on what my dog is doing is helpful when im not directly looking. Please keep in mind that: A tool does not fix a dog's habits. a leash, a collar, a harness, etc are unnatural. you must STILL teach a dog loose leash walking with rewarding them with high value treats (like hot dogs) whilst luring them to your side even with a training tool like a head halter. some dogs will find a head halter extremely aversive - do not force it. please seek out a trainer that is cpdt trained and ideally LIMA at minimum or force-free/fear-free trainers that can help you with pulling and other issues. other notes: your dog should not be using this if they are reactive and lunge/pull. use it only in non reactive settings. you will damage your dog's neck. this should be loose but a good fit. this is NOT a muzzle, your dog can still eat and bite with this. no muzzle should fully shut a dog's mouth anyway unless it is absolutely necessary by a professional (vet/groomer) muzzles should have pant room. you should not be shoving this on your dog's face (my own mistake which made her dislike this even more) for even a try on session, adjust them to it for several weeks before trying it on. this is especially true if your dog is emotionally sensitive. PLEASE do not pull your dog when wearing this, and look out for discomfort signals (whale eye, lip licking, ears pulled back, trying to rub it off, running away.) and do not force your dog to wear something they clearly don't like. respect your dog when they show you they are not okay with something.

Perfecto. Control total de los tirones.

Cumple con su función perfecto!! A mis peritos les costó un poco de trabajo acostumbrarse al halty pero desde la primera vez que lo usaron vi una gran diferencia!! No más Jalones, caminan junto a mi sin querer salir corriendo, no les lastima nada y los puedo controlar con solo un pequeño gesto de la correa. MUCHAS GRACIAS POR ESTE EXCELENTE PRODUCTO!! Quiero hacer notar que no es para dejarlo permanentemente puesto en el pero, se usa para sacarlos a pasear, y trabaja junto con el collar. Luego se quita al terminar el paseo, y si esta bien colocado el Perro no puede morderlo no romperlo. Leer las instrucciones te da una buena idea de cómo colocarlo y cómo se usa. También revisar bien las tallas, compré la pequeña para mi corgi y la mediana para mi pero grande, y les quedan perfecto!!

Ik kreeg meer controle over mijn hond, maar na 3 weken is hij al kapot gegaan. Mijn hond bleef trekken, ondanks dit hoofdtuig, het bandje dan onder zijn ogen en onder zijn kin hoorde, kwam in zijn bek terecht, toen heeft hij die door kunnen bijten.

Muito fácil de usar. Gostei bastante

ürünü yerden yemek yiyen 14 kilo olan orta ırk köpeğim için aldım, yürüyüşlerimizde sürekli kafası yerde iz sürüyordu ve yerden kemik ve ot yiyordu, yaklaşık 1 yıl bu ürünü kullandım, yerden yemek yemesinde %80 iz sürmesinde %50 başarılı sonuç aldım, ürünün burun kısmında sünger olması köpeğimin rahat nefes almasını sağladı, ürünü köpeğime taktığımda köpeğimde stres yaratmadı, yürüyüşümüzde durma, gitmeme, yere yatma, ürünü patisi ile çıkarma problemleri olmadı, başarılı bir ürün, üründen memnun kaldım, ürünü taktıktan sonra köpeğimi hemen dışarı çıkarıp kullandıktan sonra köpeğimden hemen çıkardığım için ürünü parçalama gibi bir durum yaşamadım
