Ancol nylon check chain dog collar is often referred to by dog trainers as a half check chain, combi collar or half choke, that has been designed to control your dog's behaviour on the lead and stop them pulling, that is available in a variety of colours and sizes to fit most breeds, from small to extra large.
Half check chains use a combination of nylon or leather for strength and durability with a length of threaded chain to connect each end of the collar together, that hangs loosely around your dog's neck, unless your dog decides to pull on the lead to chase the neighbours cat, that's quite embarrassing to say the least.
You may love your dog, but do you really want to be pulled down the road each time you take your dog for a walk? The nylon check chain collars shown below are the kinder way to check your dog during training on the lead, as they only partially tighten around your dog's neck, unlike a traditional choke or check chain dog collar.
When your lead is attached to the ring, if your dog pulls away from you, the half check chain will tighten enough to remind your dog who's in charge, without damaging his or her throat and then release. A nylon check chain is also suitable for those dogs that find they can easily slip out of a standard dog collar by walking backwards, as you can simply pull on the lead to tighten the size of the half check, to control your dog's behaviour and prevent them from slipping their collar.
Using a half check chain for obedience is a simple and well proven method for training your dog not to pull on the lead, but if the problem persists, try a Halti which is also available on this website, which trains in a completely different way.
