Product Description
The OmniPet Dog Training Check Cord is a foundational tool for bird dog training, recall practice, and safely managing a dog's range. It is engineered to provide reliable control during crucial training stages, bridging the gap between on-leash work and complete off-leash freedom. Its design focuses on performance, durability, and handler safety.
Material CompositionConstructed from high-density, poly-woven fibers, this cord is durable and resists abrasion, fraying, and mildew. The tight weave creates a smooth surface that glides over terrain to minimize snags and is easy on a handler's hands, reducing friction. The material is lightweight and resists water absorption, preventing it from becoming heavy in damp conditions.
Field Visibility and DimensionsThe cord is a bright, high-visibility yellow for excellent contrast against natural backdrops, allowing the handler to easily track the line. The OmniPet Dog Training Check Cord is available in two lengths:
- 20 feet (approximately 6.1 meters)
- 40 feet (approximately 12.2 meters)
Each check cord is finished with a durable, corrosion-resistant metal snap bolt, ensuring a secure and reliable attachment to a dog’s training collar or harness.
Training ApplicationThe primary function of the check cord is to provide control while teaching distance commands and recalls, allowing a handler to apply corrections or prevent the dog from running off. For a "hands-free" stopping method, tie several knots along the last 5-10 feet of the cord. This allows a handler to quickly and safely stop a dog by stepping on the knotted portion, providing an immediate, clear correction.
