Herman Sprenger ULTRA-PLUS prong collar - semi-slip - mini - black stainless steel - 41 cm / 2.25 mm

A prong collar in the mini version - thinner wire (2.25 mm) and shorter links (3 cm) for dogs with a smaller neck or a finer build. This is the semi-slip version with the ULTRA-PLUS system, in a black galvanic finish.

Semi-slip design

On a semi-slip prong collar (a martingale action, and the classic pinch-collar mechanism) the leash clips so that a pull tightens the collar evenly around the neck. The thinner 2.25 mm wire and shorter links give finer, more precise work than the standard 3.2 mm version.

Who the mini is for

The mini suits smaller dogs, sporting breeds with a slim neck, and dogs that need gentler work in training. 41 cm is the base length - you can reduce it by removing a pair of links.

The ULTRA-PLUS system

ULTRA-PLUS lets you fit the length precisely - add or remove links in pairs, each change being 6 cm (for 3 cm links). That way the collar sits snugly just below the jaw, without sagging.

Black galvanic coating

The base is stainless steel - resistant to corrosion and moisture. The black finish comes from galvanic blackening and polishing. The manufacturer states plainly that the coating is not permanent - over time, at points of contact and friction, it naturally wears through.

Sprenger also notes that on dogs with very light or white coats, the hair may discolour where it touches the black collar.

For on-leash work only

This prong collar is intended for on-leash work during active training. It should not be used during free running, transport or while the dog is unsupervised.
