For some people who are new to dog ownership, it can be a little overwhelming when it comes to choosing pet accessories and they are often confused as to what the difference between a tactical harness and a tactical collar is and what it does.
In this article I will briefly explain how they relate to each other and we will use the K9 heavy duty dog as an example. The article will cover.

What is a tactical collar?
The interaction between the tactical collar and the tactical harness.
Can they be used separately?
First of all, a tactical vest is necessary, but you can use a comfortable carrier-style tactical vest so that your dog will feel comfortable. When it comes to training your dog to walk, many owners think it’s easy, but you don’t realise that a dog’s explosive strength can drag you down and slide you for dozens of metres. A normal leash must not be suitable for a large dog breed like the K9. So you need the dog collar to be thick enough and wide enough to require a minimum of 1.5″. Many professional dog training organisations use this. When you put it around the dog’s neck, remember to pull it forward, between the dog’s jaws. In a way, that part is the dog’s sensitive area. When you pull it, it will feel uncomfortable and then you can have a little control over what you do. You need to spend some time communicating and interacting with your dog and correcting him when he gets it wrong.
What is a tactical harness?
The K9 Tactical Military Dog Harness offers handles for large dogs, a pull-free service dog harness with Molle and Loop panels, an adjustable dog harness for training hunting walks and is ideal for large breeds such as German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Golden Retrievers, Huskies, Labradors, Akita and many more. Professional working dog vest for service, police or military dogs, but also for hunting and all outdoor companion dogs.
Military dog harnesses are basically made of 1050D nylon with strong stitching for durability and abrasion resistance, suitable for all field use. The metal shoulder buckles can withstand a lot of tension to ensure your dog is securely harnessed for training, hunting, work and any other occasion. Each pressure load point is well padded to protect your dog’s skin, while the breathable air mesh keeps your dog ventilated and comfortable.
And basically they are equipped with a Moller system for pouches, water bottles and your dog’s tactical gear. Multiple hook and loop panels are available for morale patches and badges.
Easy to use and fully adjustable. Put on and take off with quick release buckles for no fuss.
What is a tactical collar?
For large dogs it is particularly important that they are safe, easy to control and do not harm the dog. Tactical dog collars have the following advantages:
Designed with a bronze zinc alloy and a snake buckle making it easy to put on and quick to lock. The outer locking buckle and inner Velcro fastener make it easy to put on and quick to lock, preventing hair snagging
The tactical collar actually closes with a hook and loop and then locks in place so that there is double protection and the dog cannot rip it off.
There is also a control handle to grab your dog from the collar, which makes it very easy to put your dog in the collar and to secure it with the hook and loop when not in use.
The tactical dog collar has a D-ring to attach the leash, making it easier to keep your dog under your control while you are around.
There is a hook and loop ID panel on this tactical collar to hold the patch.
Excellent accessory material, brass hooks with built in magnets to quickly find the D-ring to attach automatically
800D nylon reflective wire stretch strap, free to stretch and elongate the embedded nylon reflective wire for night time safety
The interaction between the tactical collar and the tactical harness.
A harness is a piece of equipment placed on a dog, almost like a saddle for a horse, around the upper part of the dog’s body to which the leash is attached. The purpose of a carrier varies. There are walker carriers and no-pull carriers, where the carrier is secured to the dog’s chest. There are also carriers designed for pulling, service dog work and tracking.
Used in conjunction with a dog collar, you can control your medium-sized dog’s movement in multiple directions and easily train your dog.
If your dog carrier does not have a night reflective material, then the dog collar is a good complement to this function .
Can they be used separately?
Dog vests and dog collars are completely separate and in fact many dog owners do this
We know that many dog harnesses themselves are equipped with D-rings on the chest or back, a design to cater for those who do not like to use dog collars. They can control their dogs just as well by snapping the leash directly onto the dog vest.
