Full Product Description

In the exacting world of IGP (Schutzhund) training, precision is everything. Whether you are competing at a club level or aiming for the nationals, one of the most challenging exercises to perfect is the "Send Away" (Voraus). Your dog needs to run fast, straight, and confidently away from you until commanded to down. To achieve this, you need a high-value reward that acts as a visible target.

Introducing our Dog Training Pad for IGP, a specialized tool engineered to serve as a guide article that builds drive and focus. Unlike standard toys, this pad is shaped and sized specifically to be placed at the end of a field, motivating your dog to drive forward with intensity.

The primary purpose of this training pad is to act as a magnet for your dog. Its substantial size (21.5 inches long) makes it highly visible from a distance, which is crucial when teaching a young dog to run in a straight line away from the handler.

When placed at the end of the track, this guide pad becomes the ultimate reward. It helps condition the dog with the joy of reaching the target, resulting in a faster, more enthusiastic send-away. It eliminates the hesitation often seen in dogs who are unsure of where they are running.

Eco-Friendly Materials & Handler Comfort

We believe that professional equipment should be safe for both the K9 and the environment. This bite pad is constructed from eco-friendly materials that are non-toxic and safe for your dog's teeth and gums. The fabric is tough enough to withstand enthusiastic bites but gentle enough not to cause injury during high-speed strikes.

For the handler, we have included a comfy soft handle. This is essential when using the pad for interactive play or tug-of-war as a reward after a successful exercise. The handle offers a secure grip, ensuring you don't lose control of the tug even when a powerful dog is pulling with full force.

Multifunctional: From Puppy Play to Bite Work

While excellent for directional training, this pad is incredibly versatile. It serves as a perfect transition tool for playing with a young dog. Before a puppy is ready for a hard sleeve, they need to build confidence on a softer surface.

This pad functions as an excellent bite pad for developing a full, calm grip. Its long, flat shape encourages the dog to open their mouth wide and target the center of the pad, laying the foundation for correct grip technique in later protection work. Whether used for Schutzhund training, obedience rewards, or simply burning off energy, this pad is a must-have in your training bag.
