Make sure you run a short line or rope from the Halti to the collar. Tie the two together. Keep it loose so Halti still does it job.
Just in case He gets the Halti off.
Many do not do this but then they have a wreak with no way to get a dog in a reactive state under control.
I know this as the line was saved Lucy life.
the night she got attacked by the pit bull, she blow the halti and she got free and went to run. I stepped on the leash and had her up in my arms before the dog could go after her a third time. if She'd took off on me I have had no chance of getting her safe or she been in the road and under a car.
I also suggest if you look at all into Tellington Touch and anxiety wraps that you switch to a tight fitting harness with a D ring in front to tie the two together it adds to the body containment these reactive fear guys need.
I have a lady in the states that will make a custom one with a ring at not a bad price if you sometime decided to go that way. She got a soft spot for dinted babies.
I know I keep fireing info at you and hope that it is not to much.
This is what I know.
It the difference between a girl that is feeling well and one that needs a doggy insane asylum. I am not kidding after the attack we had to decide to move forward or put her down. She left her head. She was out for blood and anyones. Took time and slow handleing we got her back going forward.
I had been working with her before as she always been reactive and aggressive do to her poor start ( first owners) and bad gene pool.
I not had the skill set, she not be here.
She worth the money on books, trainers and well the heart ach as the blessing are wonderful.
