Company of Animals Halti Optifit Headcollar – Gentle Pulling Solution
Walk in Comfort, Not a Battle. The Halti Optifit Headcollar is a kind and effective solution to stop your dog from pulling on the leash. Unlike traditional collars that strain against your dog's neck, this headcollar uses gentle pressure guidance to steer your dog's head, naturally encouraging them to walk calmly by your side. With its fully adjustable design and padded nose band, it provides a comfortable, humane training experience for both you and your dog.
Key Features & Benefits:
✔ Stops Pulling Instantly: Gently steers your dog's head to redirect their movement and prevent pulling
✔ Fully Adjustable Fit: Customizable nose band and cheek straps with secure camlock for a perfect fit
✔ Humane & Comfortable: Padded nose band will not interfere with panting, eating, or drinking
✔ Enhanced Safety: Reflective straps for low-light visibility and safety link that attaches to your dog's collar
✔ Professional Quality: Trusted by trainers worldwide for over 20 years
✔ Universal Design: Fits most head shapes from short-nosed to long-nosed breeds
How It Works:
The Halti Headcollar works on the principle that "where the head goes, the body follows." By gently guiding your dog's head in your desired direction, it naturally discourages pulling without causing pain or discomfort. This method is significantly more effective and kinder than choke chains or prong collars.
