Very dependable product
As a dog trainer, I love the Halti. They are a great alternative to the prong collars and choke collars. They redirect the dogs attention without hurting them in any way. I would suggest looking at one size down from what they suggest in the description. My size 3 fits most dogs 60-70 lbs. I have used it on Labradors, Am Staffs, Staffordshire Terriers, Huskies, etc. The size 4 are too big to use on most of these dogs.
Works great; would just like a better clasp
This thing is terrific. I use it in combination with a harness, and a leash with two hooks (so the leash is hooked to the harness on the dog's back, and to the halti under the dog's chin). The halti sits loose on the dog's snout. The dog can open his mouth, drink water, eat a treat. But if he pulls or lunges, the halti clamps his mouth shut.
When we first got the halti, I was showing it to my dog to get him accustomed to it. Just in the living room. Well, he was extremely interested and wanted it on. I think the very light touch on his snout felt good to him. He wore it around the house for a day or two before I began walking him with it.
When we began to use it on walks, I was very careful not to pull the halti. For the first few days, all my leading was done with the harness. Well, the day came when he lunged and the halti clamped down on his snout.
That was it, he refused to wear it on the next walk. So I took him using the old collar and...
really works
These head collars are really great to stop pulling-I only wish the material was more sturdy!One of my dogs almost chewed through the material and she only got it in her mouth for a minute.Still i would recomend these head collars for anyone who has a dog that pulls/drags them on walks.
