No more tugging with the Gentle Leader dog collar
 Most canines will attempt to pull away from their owner sometime during a walk. Maybe they see a bird they want to chase, or some little child just dropped a very delicious looking cheeseburger. This isn't too big of a problem with tiny dogs, but when a big one tries to tug away, it can be downright dangerous. The Gentle Leader dog collar from k9giants.com eliminates the common scenario of the dog walking the owner, rather than the owner walking the dog. The first of two nylon straps, the nose loop, wraps loosely around the dog's snout and mouth. When pulled, the loop exerts pressure on this area, which is similar to how an alpha dog would treat a subordinate in the wild. Dogs naturally run in "packs," which have evolved a highly structured social order in order to survive. Each dog has his place in the pack. The alpha dog, or pack leader, shows his position by gently clamping his mouth onto an inferior's muzzle. The Gentle Leader dog collar mimics this behavior. The second part of the collar is the neck strap. If you've ever witnessed a dog or cat pick up their young by the neck, you've seen how it can calm them instantly. This second strap places pressure on the top of the neck, rather than a standard leash that pulls up from the bottom. Dogs naturally pull away from pressure, so this technique causes them to pull backward instead of forward, putting an end to leash tug-o-war.
 Another option for training is a choke chain. When used properly, it is a most effective tool in deterring unwanted behaviors. K9giants.com now offers a rolled leather dog collar that can be used either as a simple buckle collar or as a choke collar. Simply select the ring you want and your collar is transformed instantly. In the past, choke chains have only been available in metal chain and nylon. For those dogs with longer hair, a leather dog collar can be much gentler on the coat. Made from only the finest vegetable tanned leather and accented with shiny brass hardware, your pooch will be the envy of the dog park patrons.
We also offer a nice selection of dog beds for your pet!
