Slip-on Training Leash | K9 Tango

This extra-long (3 metres in length), lightweight slip-on leash easily loops over your dog’s head, making it perfect for training as it provides more control and flexibility, allowing for gradual distance training, subtle corrections, and safer exploration, all while building the dog’s confidence and trust. It also serves as a quick solution 2-in-1 collar and leash with adjustable leather sliders for convenience in case your dog is not wearing a collar but needs to be handled or wants a walk. 

Inspiration

Tango K9 operates within Thornybush Nature Reserve, part of the Greater Kruger National Park. This dedicated anti-poaching unit of specially trained dogs protects endangered species and Africa’s wildlife, detecting illegal wildlife contraband, firearms, and ammunition.

As a result of the global Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on South Africa’s tourism industry, the funding for Tango K9's anti-poaching unit has severely diminished. To offer support CHOMMIES has collaborated with Tango K9 to create a custom, extra-long slip-on training leash that is being used by the unit and their dogs in the bush. The specific tailored design of these leashes is also apt for everyday dog owners looking to make dog training easier.

All profits from the sale of these leashes go directly to support Tango K9’s vital work as part of our Chommies for life* program.
