GB Best practice to train your dog with the Tactile HALTI Training Lead Training dogs has never been so simple as today. New knowledge about canine behaviour, a fresh appreciation of the need to reward good behaviour and innovative equipment like the Halti headcollar have done away with choke chains and made cruel, compulsive methods of dog training obsolete. The Halti Training Lead was designed to control, guide and tether a dog in many situations; not necessarily in conjunction with a Halti headcollar. However, that is its primary function, when its lightweight trigger hook (B) is attached to the Halti. The heavier and stronger trigger hook (A) is then attached to the D-ring of the dog’s normal collar, and you can then guide your dog with both hands. In figure 1, the left hand acts as a “brake” on a flat collar, the right hand “steers”. If you have an over-boisterous, aggressive or otherwise troublesome dog, the double lead system gives maximum security, especially whilst he is getting used to wearing Halti. There are other designs of double-ended leads but mostly, you will find that the trigger hooks are too big, heavy and uncomfortable when attached to the Halti ring. Halti is such a perfect guiding instrument on a dog’s head that fine equipment and a light hand are all that is needed.
