Product Information

We encourage you to help your dog acclimatise to the harness by using positive associations methods. We use slip leads, and very rarely would need to nose loop (it generally means the dog has been put in a position where they have become overwhelmed as the circumstances have exceeded the training or the in-laws have taught them to pull but sometimes needs must). A halti tightens when they pull to cause pain, gentle leaders don’t (intentionally anyway, I find they’re not the best made so accidentally do) , they supposed to work more like a head collar on a horse, not causing discomfort but giving you control over their head to lessen the ability to pull.

I have been using a harness on Mia as she is so strong and pulls but just today I took her for an assessment with a very highly regarded gun dog trainer and the first thing he did was put a slip on her and she was walking perfectly to heel within 20 seconds with the slip hanging loose around her shoulders, she continued that way for the next hour and a half and even stayed in a sit at my side when we removed the slip for a while.

He tolerated his Halti but learnt to brace his neck and pull into it, he doesn't do that with the slip lead.

The lead coming off is just that; it’s not a sign for the dog to do anything but sit there and wait for a command……….I train heelwork in a very old fashioned way with a slip lead plus as light a correction as possible and a hell of a lot praise. If the dog is regularly running through undergrowth, then we would recommend removing the harness altogether. The difference between a half check collar (chain) is that the dog is meant to hear the chain and think oh my collar will tighten best stop pulling.

They are pretty thick and well woven together and have a good solid leather "tag" that prevents the lead from loosening up too much. When we see other dogs I do a quick correction (try not to pull his head toward me, just tighten the lead). My cocker pulls like hell in a harness or a flat/half check collar but as soon as I put the slip lead on, she was walking perfectly before I ever had to feel it tighten. No because the neck is an extremely sensitive part of the dog and should not have pressure applied to it.

It can be used for hands-free walking, walking two dogs on one lead, short-lead control, long-lead training, supervised tethering, and to combine with other Halti products for no pull training.
