The Schweikert Padded Protection Whip is a padded protection whip for helpers, with a lightweight plastic core, soft felt padding and an Aero cover, finished with a whip lash and popper.
It gives the helper a light stick that is quick to handle, with felt padding for safer contact and a popper for sound and pressure when building drive and confidence.
Features
- Core: plastic, sturdy yet light
- Padding: soft felt on the baton section
- Cover: Aero material for grip and resistance to wear
- End: whip lash and popper for clear cues
For IGP and protection helper work, stick pressure introduction and young dog development.
How trainers use it
Helpers use a padded stick to introduce stick pressure in small steps. A common start is light touches on the back or shoulders, never the head, while the dog holds a full grip, then slowly building the level as the dog shows it can cope. The popper and lash add sound, which helps raise the dog's activation without contact. Many helpers also carry the stick early on, simply so the dog gets used to seeing it. Stick work should be left to an experienced helper. Check the padding and cover for wear before each session.
