HALTI Headcollar Size 3 Black, UK Bestselling Dog Head Harness to Stop Pulling on the Lead, Easy to Use, Padded Nose Band, Adjustable & Reflective, Professional Anti-Pull Training Aid for Medium Dogs

Product Information

I recommend buying your first dog head halter in person so that a knowledgeable salesperson can help you fit the halter to your dog’s muzzle. It’s important to ensure that your dog’s head halter does not rub on your dog’s head, ride up into your dog’s eyes, or slip down off of his muzzle. The Halti is designed to fit ‘snugly’ on your dog. However, it is only ever designed to be used during walks. Below, we offer size suggestions for common breeds which can be a useful starting point. Do keep in mind, however, that not all dogs within a given breed have the same measurements. (press ctrl+f if you’re using windows, or cmd+f for mac, and start typing your dog’s main breed to find their potential size faster): If your dog has a lighter coloured face, uneducated passers-by may think your dog is wearing a muzzle. This is an unfortunate side effect, which can be frustrating to deal with. Prepare for sideways glances or strangers crossing the street to avoid your ‘dangerous dog’. You still need to train your dog not to pull. The Halti is a useful piece of equipment, but ultimately training is the only long term solution

How do Haltis Compare to Other Types of Aversive Collars?

What makes this collar different from most is that it fastens from behind the head rather than below the chin. This results in absolutely no jerking of the lead and that’s what makes it an effective training collar. Plus, there’s no chance of it riding up too high near the eyes or yanking your dog’s head to one side. Thank you for your recommendations. I have become a mainly bedridden person. Do to an old broken vertebrae re-fracturing, and other spinal problems that run in the family. I may soon be helped by spinal surgery. I always remind my clients that you still will have to teach your dog to walk nicely on leash, because in the vast majority of cases the dog will start to pull again as soon as you remove the piece of equipment.
