Measure the dog at the base of the head, at its widest point. The collar is designed to allow it to pass freely over the head and prevent it from sliding off. When pulling the attached leash, the collar reduces its circumference to the set size. Half-clamp collars are used in dogs with a neck wider than the head, which allows them to break free from ordinary collars.
The resting collar should lie loosely around the neck.

Collar with a half-clamp system of the martingale type ensures security by reducing the circumference of the collar while pulling it to the preset moment.

Martingale (pronounced martingejl, [‚mɑːtɪŋgeɪl]) is lighter than a half-clamp collar - we recommend it for delicate greyhound necks.

Types of lanyards
Usually it is short leash starting from 1,5 meters, but it is also available in longer versions, even several meters long. It can be said that this is the basic type of leash and is available in virtually every pet store. Because it's usually quite a short leash, unfortunately not giving the dog enough freedom on a walk. Dogs tend to tug and pull excessively when they spend most of their walks on a short leash. Even simple sniffing on lawns along the sidewalk can be difficult when the leash significantly restricts movement. Oczywiście a short leash also has its advantages And there are times when it works brilliantly. Sometimes we wander with the dog in places where must stay close us because of heavy traffic or even a trip along a mountain trail. Every dog owner should have a short leash, but let's use it only in exceptional situations. City lanyard is the perfect solution, when we want to pass with the dog to a nearby park, where it will run freely, to the vet, groomer, or for coffee.
The lanyards are fastened to it the perfect solution for the city dog. Such a leash usually has from 2 meters length. It consists of two carabiners at the ends and rings attached to different parts of the leash so that its length can be shortened or extended by connecting the carabiner to the rings. Length adapting to the walking situation. The detachable leash in its longer version (e.g. 4 meters) offers the dog much more freedom which makes the walk more pleasant and calms the dog down. The great advantage of the detachable leash is its size versatility, because it can be shortened by using it like a short city leash, but also extended and used during, for example, freer wandering in the forest.
The rope leash is very durable because it is made of a climbing rope that has all the necessary approvals for ropes used during extreme sports. The lanyard does not have any sharp edges, so even with strong jerks, your hands are safe (the more that its structure itself absorbs up to 35% of the pulling force). The leash is quite stiff, so it does not get tangled by the legs and paws during walks, does not absorb waterwhich is very important if your dog or water and has the option to change the length!
Rubber leash for a dog provides a firm, secure grip. It provides walking comfort thanks to the fact that the leash does not slip in the hand and will work even with a strong pulling or reactive dog. The rubberized leash is available in several colors: black, yellow, blue, teal, purple and fuchsia. Its weight is similar to standard leashes, belongs to the leash with a light weight.
Long line
Such a lanyard/rope has a length from 2 meters up. It provides control over the dog, but also allows you to use the freedom offered to it. It is easier for the dog to communicate with other dogs, sniff the surroundings or even run a little. You can also use a long cord for training purposes practicing e.g. recall. We can make it from different materials: from traditional tape, climbing rope and anti-slip tape.
Using a long rope requires a little more attention from the caretaker, but it guarantees that such a walk can be pleasant for both parties.
Leash for two dogs
Life is different and sometimes we make choices another puppy. Then he comes to help two-piecethat helps to tame the eight legs. It's actually a city leash, but we can attach two dogs to it at the same time. Dwójnik has a length of 150 cm: 50 cm - handle (we can extend it by 1 meter) and 100 cm - leash with a carabiner (2 pcs.) separateif we want the lanyards to be detachable independently or inseparableif the only detachable element was the handle.
Recommended lanyard widths:
- 1,5 cm - miniature dogs (e.g. chihuahua, yorkshire terrier)
- 2 cm - small and medium-sized dogs (e.g. shih tzu, west highland white terrier, jack russell)
- 2,5 cm - large dogs (e.g. British spaniel, Hungarian pointer, German boxer)
Guardians little four-paws need for those under their care light leashes, in which the carabiner will be properly selected in terms of weight and size. The weight of the carabiner is important especially for a dog that wears a collar, so the leash is attached to the neck. You should choose a lanyard made of a narrower tape, and therefore light, with a small carabiner.
We recommend leashes for miniature dogs 1,5 cm wide due to the smallest carabiner.
We recommend leashes for small and medium-sized dogs 2 cm wide due to the medium carabiner.
While guardians of the larger dogs usually want to equip themselves with leashes to provide furry kids security. For this reason, it matters most strength - lanyards are intended for them 2,5 cm wide. We sew large, strong snap hooks into the leashes for large dogs, using tear-resistant threads.
For large dogs, we recommend wide leashes 2,5 cm due to the large carabiner.
They also appeared in our offer locking carabiners to leash z tape 2 cm and to leash z tape 2,5 cm. It is a decorated metal carabiner enriched with an opening lock. To open the carabiner, press the lever and depress the latch at the same time. It is heavier than our standard carabiners due to the locking mechanism.
