The Sporthund padded leather stick is a black IGP competition-style padded stick for the helper: a fibreglass rod with padding and a leather cover, made for Schutzhund / IGP protection training. It is for club helpers and trainers preparing dogs for protection work. K9 Store is the exclusive UK distributor of Sporthund.
The padded leather cover lets the helper apply the controlled stick pressure used in IGP protection, so dogs can be conditioned to stay calm and keep a full grip under pressure.

For helpers preparing dogs for the stick tests in IGP / Schutzhund protection, from first introduction through to trial-style work.
How trainers use it
Helpers usually introduce the stick slowly. The dog first sees and hears it while gripping, then feels light touches on the back or shoulders, never the head. Pressure is only added when the dog stays calm and keeps a full grip. Stick work belongs with an experienced helper, as part of a planned programme suited to the individual dog.
