The traction rope is the life rope of the dog, and the necessary dog walking artifact for the shoveling officer. But in the face of different types of traction tools, I do not know how to choose, as well as different materials, which is better? E Dr. remind, choose traction, of course, according to the dog's own situation, "tailor-made" choice, in order to make it comfortable travel!
8-shaped chest back small body essential
The 8-shaped chest strap is currently the most common traction style on the market, because the wearing position is on the chest and shoulder, which is easy for dogs to accept. Most of the chest straps are nylon material, the price is moderate. But the hair is easy to be compacted, the control is not high, suitable for small dogs and smaller puppies.
The 8-shaped chest strap has many similar styles, such as a small vest, which increases the contact area with the skin, makes it more comfortable to wear, and is safer for puppies, bulldogs, and elderly dogs.
I-shaped chest and back are suitable for large and smooth
The I-shaped chest and back principle is very similar to the 8-shaped one. A longitudinal strip of the back is added, with more focus points, greater control force, strong and durable. It is more suitable for docile medium and large dogs, but not for large dogs with explosive problems. The big dog has great strength. The connection point between the traction rope and the chest strap is on the back of the dog. It takes a lot of force to pull the dog back. At the same time, it will always tug-of-war with you.
The shoulder of the I-shaped chest and back can also move freely, with high comfort and not easy to slip off.
Saddle-style Chest-back Tide Dog Essential
The chest strap looks like a saddle. It is more comfortable to wear than I-shaped and 8-shaped vests, and the appearance is more fashionable. It is especially suitable for medium and large dogs with cool appearance, such as German shepherd and border collie.
Some saddle-type chest back also has a handle, suitable for the owner to pull directly with the hand, can also play a role in preventing the dog burst. Especially those dogs who are easy to go out and fight, with this traction can prevent a big war.
Explosion-proof back strap refuses to be walked by a dog
If dogs have not systematically learned to follow the shape and the shoveling officer is very spoiled, then the scene of walking dogs is basically "dogs walking people", and such dogs need better control.
Front Buckle Explosion-proof Chest Back
The connection between the traction rope and the chest strap is changed to the front of the dog, which is the same principle as that of the horse. When the dog rushes forward, it can make the dog turn quickly, which can alleviate the explosion problem and save the user a lot of effort.
Double-head explosion-proof chest back
This kind of chest back is very similar to the I-shaped chest back, but it uses a double head buckle, one head buckle the front chest, and the other buckle the back ring. Even if it encounters a stimulus burst, it can be controlled without too much force. The chest of the rope control left and right to prevent explosion, behind the traction control before and after, but for the novice may be in a hurry.
Collar control strong fix strong Wang
Collar through the neck pressure, if the dog rushed forward, collar tightening pressure will cause the neck natural bending, can be very effective control.
It is suitable for big dogs with chest straps that are not easy to control. It is not suitable for dogs with particularly lively personalities and frequent bursts. Because it is worn on the neck and often bursts, pulling the collar back will hurt the dog's trachea and thyroid gland in the neck.
Collar styles have ordinary collars and safety buckle collars, which can be selected according to the dog's personality and applicability.
P-chain traction professional training use
The P-chain is a more professional control traction, with strong control, and is selected according to the body type for hounds or energetic large dogs. When using the P-shaped chain, it is necessary to master the correct way of wearing it. Improper use can easily cause the dog to die.
How to choose the type of traction rope?
According to the length of the rope, the traction rope can be divided into long, short, ordinary fixed traction rope and manual adjustment traction rope, and telescopic traction rope.
Daily dog walking fixed short traction
Walking the dog in the city, there are many accidents, too long rope is not suitable for controlling the dog, 1-1.5m long fixed length traction is enough, the more disobedient the dog, the shorter.
Adjustable traction as condition changes
This kind of drawstring can adjust the length, shorten or increase the length of the rope. When dogs cross the road or busy streets, they need to shorten the rope, while open places can be adjusted to increase the range of activities.
Telescopic towing rope more freedom
Telescopic traction is especially suitable for the interaction between shovelers and dogs. With traction, you can also play recovery and Frisbee games. Walking the dog in the city with retractable traction is recommended to fasten the rope, do not let the dog stretch at will.
The most important thing for telescopic traction is the smoothness of retraction, so that dogs do not have to pull hard and will not be scattered on the ground to tie knots during recycling. Flexi (Flexi), which is regarded as a dog walking artifact, has done a better job in this respect.
Attention! Novice shovelers need to use retractable traction carefully. If it is put too long, it is easy to encounter accidents. Many people will directly pull the rope by hand, which is easy to scratch. Moreover, dogs are also easy to wrap the rope around the legs of the shoveling officer, causing accidents. Usually try to collect short use.
Selection of traction ropes of different materials
Nylon webbing for docile small dogs
Traction buckle is also important
Traction rope links the buckle of the collar and chest strap. There are two common types: "bolt type" and "press type". Dogs with great strength must choose metal buckle with good quality. Plastic buckle may collapse if the pulling force is large.
