EFFECTIVE PROTECTION FOR YOUR DOGS AND PETS: To be used together with a CoyoteVest or SpikeVest spiked dog vest (both sold separately), a HawkShield pad is additional stab-resistant protection attached to the top of your pet’s safety harness vest. Its purpose is to help protect the back from sharp talons and help prevent your small pet from being carried away by a large raptor when they are outside walking, training, hiking or camping.
TOUGH MATERIALS AND QUALITY MADE: The HawkShield pad is engineered with triple layers of genuine DuPont Kevlar material that’s super tough and able to resist the sharp talons of birds of prey while being lightweight and comfortable. It provides peace of mind for you knowing that your pet’s back has extra protection to defend against the sharp talons of a dangerous flying predator.
FAST ATTACHMENT/REMOVAL WITH VELCRO STRIPS: The HawkShield attaches to a CoyoteVest or SpikeVest small dog harness with just enough Velcro to keep it securely in place while allowing it to be removed easily. If a bird of prey tries to grab your pet and fly away, the first thing they can grab is the HawkShield. As the predator tries to lift off, the weight of the dog will cause the HawkShield to be released from the vest, giving your pet a chance to escape. In nature, this is called autotomy
COLORFUL BODY ARMOR FOR PETS: The HawkShield is very light and it’s easy to add or remove as needed to a CoyoteVest or SpikeVest small dog harness.They are available in the same fluorescent colors as the CoyoteVest and SpikeVest so you can mix or match your HawkShield with your pet’s CoyoteVest or SpikeVest dog hawk vest create your own style of colorful funky protective armor! No pull dog harness medium sized dog, large size dogs and small size dog
HOW TO CHOOSE A HAWKSHIELD: The HawkShield pad is available in different sizes (dog harness for large dogs, harness small size dog, harness medium size dog) to match the different sizes of CoyoteVest and SpikeVest. Please order the same size as the vest it will be used on. NOTE: The Hawkshield is NOT AVAILABLE FOR LARGE DOGS
