Gifts For the Guys
It can be hard finding a collar you like at the pet shop in town…but when you're looking for quality kit for K9s working for our wildlife, things get even harder!
What we look for,
when searching for dog gear is durability, mobility and sustainability. That’s why we specifically ask for working dog equipment such as long lines mainly made of leather. Y shaped harnesses are also in high demand for work in man trailing as the Y shape fit along with a padded chest plate allows maximum shoulder movement as well as breathability and comfort.
No fancy equipment? No problem. Work with what you (dont) have. I introduced this new recruit to some odor imprinting and indication work. It’s lovely to see him resist and maintain his nose in my makeshift box as I add a little leash pressure backwards. This K9 is new to the unit and was a rescue! His name is Lanza, and he is very enthusiastic to have a role in Anti-Poaching!
