It found that there was no real difference in acceptance when it came to different styles of head collar. Some dog owners report that their dog stops pulling when wearing the Halti head harness. However, these dogs won’t stop pulling when wearing a normal leash.

If the Halti does not stop your dog from pulling, they may experience high levels of discomfort – even if the product is only used on walks. How are Haltis Different to Muzzles? Halti is suitable for a number of different dog breeds, coming in three different sizes. Additional benefits include a reflective strip on the harness for use when walking your dog at night. For the best experience, it’s recommended that you combine the Halti with the compatible Halti Training Lead, which you can use for even more “steering” control.Evidence from studies suggests that positive reinforcement methods are the most effective at training permanent skills. Although the Halti brand offers a number of different harnesses, we will be focussing on their head harness in this guide. How Does a Halti Work? Ultimately, the least cruel way to stop your dog from pulling is to use positive reinforcement training to teach them to heel. Double-leads are more complicated to use but have been proven to provide better balance for an unruly dog and thereby reduce pulling. That said, the chest padding alone most certainly has an affect on how the dog responds when walking – just the tiniest tug of the leash will invariably have it walking to heel. The First and Perfect place to start is getting your dog used to wearing a Halti Head Collar / Halti Harness. Using the Halti Training Lead with these Halti products makes like much more accessible.

As we’ve learnt earlier in this guide to ‘what is a Halti’, this type of head harness has a loop that attaches around your dog’s snout. Always praise your dog if they walk a short distance without pulling or walking away. This will help your dog understand what is right and wrong. Remember, rewards for your dog help in all aspects of training. However, the Halti is specifically designed to associate pulling with a negative consequence for your dog.
