Anchor Martingale Collar

The Training Collar That Corrects Without Choking

Standard collars have one problem: a determined dog can back out of them. And choke chains have a different problem: they keep tightening with no limit, which is neither safe nor effective.

The martingale solves both. The TailSetter Martingale Dog Collar combines a sturdy nylon upper with a double-loop stainless steel chain that tightens gently when your dog pulls — just enough to signal correction — and immediately releases when they stop. It cannot over-tighten. It cannot slip off. It is the training collar that actually does what a training collar should.

Used by dog trainers worldwide. Recommended by vets for dogs with narrow heads. Built for daily use.

How a Martingale Collar Works

A martingale has two loops. The larger nylon loop sits around your dog's neck and is adjusted to fit. The smaller chain loop hangs below — when your dog pulls forward, the leash tension draws the chain loop tighter, which in turn tightens the nylon loop gently around the neck. When tension releases, the collar returns to its full open size immediately. The maximum tightening is limited by the length of the chain — it can only tighten to a snug fit, never a choke.

What Makes This Collar Effective

• Anti-escape design — The self-correcting tightening mechanism prevents dogs from backing out of the collar — the number one risk with standard flat collars for breeds with narrow heads like Greyhounds, Whippets, and Sighthounds.
• Gentle self-correction — The collar tightens only when your dog pulls — providing a clear, immediate signal without pain or sustained pressure.
• Limited tightening range — The chain length determines the maximum tightening point. The collar cannot over-tighten beyond a snug, safe fit — unlike choke chains which have no such limit.
• Immediate release — As soon as leash tension drops, the collar returns fully open. No sustained pressure. No discomfort at rest.
• Heavy-duty nylon upper — Wide black nylon webbing with a secure metal buckle for initial sizing adjustment.
• Stainless steel chain — Double-loop chain construction with a centre ring for leash attachment — rust-resistant and built for daily use.

Best For

• Dogs being leash trained — the gentle correction reinforces walking to heel effectively
• Breeds with narrow heads prone to slipping standard collars — Greyhounds, Whippets, Salukis, Dobermans, Boxers
• Dogs that back out of collars when startled
• Training sessions where consistent, humane correction is needed
• Medium and large breeds

Important Safety Notes

• A martingale collar should only be worn during supervised walks and training sessions — never left on an unattended dog
• Always attach the leash to the chain loop centre ring, not the nylon section
• Check the fit regularly — the collar should never close tight enough to restrict breathing at any point
