Classic style halter (classic because it connects to the lead under the dog's jaw) and has been the Halter of choice for many trainers for the past several years. The dynamic design allows the Halter to move as the dog moves, leaving the nose bridge strap to sit comfortably in the same position. This means it doesn't tend to ride up close to the dog's eyes and the dog is more content while wearing the Halter.
Sizes:
Mini: Adjustable to fit neck from 20 to 35cm.
Small: Adjustable to fit neck from 27 to 37cm.
Medium: Adjustable to fit neck from 35 to 52cm.
Large: Adjustable to fit neck from 43 to 68cm.
XLarge: Adjustable to fit neck from 58 to 94cm
How to get the best fit for your dog:
The Noseband and Cords on the Training Halter allow for a large adjustment, so sizing is based on a dog's neck measurement
Use a soft tape measure place it around your dog's neck up close behind the ears, this is where the neck strap should fit and take a snug to tight neck measurement.
Check your dog's neck measurement against the list above, to select the appropriate size.
Important: If your dog fits between 2 sizes, generally select the smaller size, UNLESS you are fitting a growing dog in which case you might go for the larger size to allow for future growth.

Nervous or reactive dogs continually have their anxiety reinforced by people or dogs moving into their comfort zone. These Vests will alert other people to your dog's dislike of being crowded, making it easier to act appropriately and if necessary modify their dog's actions around yours.
The Black Dog Space Vest is a highly visible vest with "In Training Give Me Space!", or "I'm Nervous Give Me Space" message.
The Black Dog Space Vest is crafted from lightweight polyester for long-lasting wear and easy care. Many customers have successfully machine washed the vest; if doing so, we recommend using a gentle cycle and placing it in a laundry wash bag for extra protection.
Not designed to be connected to a lead or to be placed under strain from a lead.
TYPE: In Training; I'm Nervous
SIZES: (size see guide in images)
XSmall: Girth 33-55cm

The Haltermate is Black Dog's new figure 8 head halter. It is our Second Generation figure 8 halter - we re-designed the Infin8 and it has evolved into the Haltermate.
The Haltermate is easier to fit and adjust, yet keeps all the great features which made the original comfortable and effective.It sits securely and will not ride up into your dog's eyes. The lead attaches at the back and dogs respond quickly and easily to lead pressure.
But the Haltermate is even better - it can be left on your dog without a lead attached, it is simple to adjust and sits centered on the dog's neck. We've retained all the great features of the Infin8, without any of the hard bits.
The Haltermate is is essentially a Flat Collar with a Martingale Loop and Noseband attached. Your lead is clipped at the back of the dog's neck, so it feels just like a normal collar and the noseband only tightens when the dog pulls. This gives a very clear On/Off signal, so your dog will respond quickly and learn quickly, even to light pressure on the lead. And no matter how the lead is used, the nosebend will not ride up into the dog's eyes.
The Haltermate is extremely effective in calming a pulling, boisterous dog, without the need for harsh corrections or gruff training techniques.
Fitting is easy - clip the collar on, then wrap the noseband 1.. 2.. 3...
When you first get your Haltermate, take a little time to read the instructions and to understand the full possibilities of this halter. It won't be long before you and your dog will be enjoying walks, with your dog accepting and respecting your fingertip control.

The Size 2 Collar has a collar width of 14mm and the nose strap is approx 12mm wide

Training Collars were Black Dog's first ever product. They were designed for training without the harshness and pain of a chain choker. Nowadays, the training collar is generally used more as a security collar because of the non-slip security of a martingale design - the design helps prevent dogs slipping out of their collar.
Careful consideration to design of the collar, components and choice of materials in relation to the size of dog, has enabled Black Dog Wear to produce a highly effective Training Collar that is robust and looks great.
Features:
- Adjustable - to exactly and comfortably fit a dog's neck, and can be adjusted as your dog grows.
- Extremely easy and safe to use.
- Simple to fit.
- Unique "Designer Dog Wear" appeal backed with Black Dog's quality guarantee.
- Will not over tighten on a dog's neck - the cause of nasty K-9 throat & neck injuries.
- Will not cut, mark or remove a dog's coat.
For extremely strong, pulling dogs, a totally secure Heavy Duty Training Collar is available. See separate entry.
Recommend use with a lead NOT longer than 3 metres at the most due to proximity to be able to train and correct your dog
Please note: Not recommended as a collar to leave on your dog unless Walking, Training or close by. We recommend our ''Standard Collar Ranges''
The way we measure the collars also changed, now we measure the collar with the tightening loop fully extended, so it more clearly matches a neck size on a dog

This is a great Walking Harness, and an effective training alternative for dogs with neck issues, or if a head halter is not appropriate.

The attached belt is adjustable from 80cm through to 135cm.

An internal pocket - for holding jackpot rewards - allows you quick and silent access to higher status rewards without alerting your dog.
The front mesh pocket - for a ball or treat toy - allows air to circulate and helps prevent any build up of bacteria. The 2 small side pockets are for pick-up bags, or perhaps a clicker and the external loops allow for a snub lead or whatever to be clipped on while not in use.

The Treat Tote's wide mouth is for easier access for those with larger hands, while its deeper design is not to hold lots of treats, but to help hold treats securely inside while you run and bend, and you can quickly flip it closed with the magnet clasp. The magnet clasp is easily opened, so it suits those with any lack of dexterity, or arthritis in the hands or fingers.

The Black Dog Wear Car Strap is an adjustable strap with a stainless steel carabiner at one end and a clip in tongue for a seat belt buckle at the other (compatible with most makes of vehicle - not compatible with some older Volvo cars).
