Taking your Rambunctious Dog to the Vet

Transporting puppies and dogs that do not play well with others to the vet can be stressful for the owner, especially if the vets’ office is a busy one. Make sure you have good control of your puppy or dog before entering the vets office to prevent any unnecessary upset or injuries. There are many training collars that not only give you control of your dog, but also can help in preventing them from being able to bite another. Here is one such collar that can make any trip to the vet much more pleasant for both you and your dog.



Coastal Pet Halti Headcollar in Size 3 (adjustable)
The patented Halti headcollar, designed by Dr. Roger Mugford, gives you total control when walking your dog. It calms boisterous dogs; simplifies training; restrains biters; reduces fears; reforms fighters; and assists with restraining dog during veterinarian or grooming visits. It is also great for calming hysterical dogs during car travelers. Halti stops pulling because if you guide a dog’s head, the body will surely follow. The soft nylon collar fits comfortably around its face without restricting the mouth. If the dog tries to pull or lunge forward, Halti transfers the forward motion into turning the head sideways. This immediately discourages the activity without any undue stress to the animal. Perfect for leash control training and as a permanent training collar for large or active dogs.
Size 3 is recommended for the following breeds: Afghan, Airedale, Boxer, Briard, Chow-Chow, Dalmatian, Doberman, Greyhound, German Shepherd, Husky, Labrador, Pointers, Retrievers, Setters, Springers, Weimaraner, and similarly sized dogs.

  1. I have a boxer and she has several health issues. I've had to take her to the vet a lot and as soon as I pull into the parking lot she starts whining. I have to carry her in and hold her or she would bolt for the door whenever it opened. I wish I knew how to calm her fears and make the trip easier on both of us.

  2. My dog is very well behaved and was not a problem when I took him to the vet the first time. The second time, we both could have used something for our nerves. Now, I make my husband take him. That may be a cop-out, but it's too much for me.

  3. Our dogs are more like our kids and we want them to enjoy their trips to the vet. I've found that the best thing to do is not to hurry. They sense your tenseness and then they get edgy. Take your time and let them get accustomed to the area at their own pace.

  4. That was certainly never one of my favorite things to do, although I knew it was for his own good. He usually liked going for rides in the car except when I was taking him to the vet. I think he somehow sensed the destination and I usually had to chase him down and hog tie him to get him in the car on those days.

  5. My dog is a little rambuctious but he really doesn't mind going to the vets. He's even good when he gets his shots. I think he remembers that the vet has his favorite doggie treats. I have more trouble with other peoples dogs than I do with my own.

  6. We have to make sure our Diesel is on a leash and try to make an appointment first thing in the morning before it gets too crowded in the office. This is very helpful.
