i was told not to leave the half check on when free running or when at home but
to put a normal collar on as the chek bit could get caught up and pull tight on
the dogs neck .dont know if this is possible but just saying what i was told
.i dont have a collar on them in the house but if for some reason i do put one
on it is a normal collar .but if i call at my mums or somewhere where i let her
of the lead in there house well it is her working collar she has on and that is
a half check .donna

Pam, there was a time when the release clip would come off, i had it happen,
crossing the street, so had half a harness, back in the late 70's or early
80's think it was, but some schools still use them here, or you can get one,

i have seen the half checks used in the UK and much prefer them to the ones
used here. not sure why the quick release clip ones aren't used here.
