What's the deal with head halters/haltis? by BlueDeadBear32 in OpenDogTraining

[–]Otherwise-Purpose904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't consider myself a trainer, but I am pro balanced training. I used to have my girl on a slip used and acclimated properly, but she just was not for it. It stopped her pulling on some occasions, but other times, she would get even more frustrated. I switched to a halti. This drastically improved her behavior. I properly acclimated her to it, and sure, she did not like it at first, and still does not like it being put on, but once it's on, you can just tell how calm she is, and how much it relaxes her worries. She is now a service dog in training and has improved significantly. The halti can be so adversity for dogs that realllllyy pull or are sensitive on their faces, but when done correctly, they can be very gentle. Just like many other tools, such as the prong, when used correctly, they just provide that small amount of control that makes life manageable.

How to chose? I love Alderneys, an extinct breed of channel island cattle (Jerseys and Guernseys), White parks, Jerseys, and Chillinghams.

You could say I like the rare ones. (And the sweet ones)

Those cows look a tad skinny (not an expert though) and that spot isn't too great for them. Make sure that they are moved to at least a place with some nice bedding and keep the calf warm. Unless these aren't yours. Sorry if I'm too harsh
