This Ancol Heritage Extra Heavy Check Dog Chain is designed for dog owners who need a durable and reliable control solution for their dogs. Its primary benefit is the secure and robust construction for strong dogs. A potential caveat is that check chains may not be suitable for all dogs or training methods. This 60cm chain is manufactured from mild steel with high-quality chrome plating and features welded links for maximum safety and reliability during walks.

The 60cm chain is suitable for dogs with neck circumferences up to approximately 45-50cm. It should be fitted so that it is loose when the dog is relaxed but tightens with gentle pressure. Consult a professional if unsure about sizing.
This is an 'Extra Heavy' duty chain and is generally recommended for adult dogs, particularly those that are strong pullers. It may be too heavy or harsh for puppies, who often require more gentle training methods.
It is recommended to clean the chain after each use by wiping it with a damp cloth and drying it thoroughly. A more thorough cleaning can be done periodically as needed.
While primarily designed for neck control, the chain can be attached to a lead which is then attached to a harness. However, its effectiveness in providing immediate feedback is maximized when used directly around the neck.
The chain is manufactured from mild steel with a high-quality chrome plating.
Yes, Ancol offers a range of chain dog collars, and this model may be available in different lengths. Please check the product listing or Ancol's range for other options.
Ensure the chain is dried thoroughly after each use and cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
Clean the chain thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris that might be hindering movement. Apply a small amount of metal-friendly lubricant if necessary, ensuring it is safe for animal contact.
Check the trigger clip for dirt or debris and clean it. If the issue persists, the clip mechanism may be damaged and require replacement.
Setup: To attach the chain, slide one end of the chain through the loop of the other, forming a slip lead. Attach the trigger clip to your dog's collar or harness. Ensure the chain is fitted correctly around the dog's neck, with the rings positioned to allow for proper tensioning without being too loose or too tight. When properly fitted, there should be enough slack for the chain to hang loosely when the dog is relaxed, but tighten immediately when gentle pressure is applied.
Compatibility: This chain is designed to be used as a lead attachment. It is compatible with standard dog leads that have a trigger clip. While it can be used with a harness, its primary function is neck control, so direct attachment to a collar is more common.
Care: Clean the chain regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and moisture. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust or damage to the chrome plating. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Periodically inspect the welded links for any signs of wear or damage.
