Dog wearing Relay Harness with a receiver mounted on its back

RELAY HARNESS™

A familiar receiver. A new place to wear it.

Relay Harness™ is a passive harness designed to mount a compatible remote training receiver on the body and route its output toward bilateral shoulder / lateral body contact zones.

How Relay Works

A simple body-mounted platform for compatible remote training receivers.

Create Bilateral Contact

Inward-facing contact assemblies sit along the dog’s lateral body contact zones.

Same Receiver. Different Cue Locations.

Relay Harness™ does not create new electronic functions. The compatible receiver still produces its normal cues. Relay changes where those cues are delivered or physically originate on the dog.

BILATERAL CONTACT

Receiver output is routed through Relay to inward-facing contact assemblies along the bilateral shoulder / lateral body contact zones.

VIBRATION AT THE BACK

When the compatible receiver vibrates, the vibration originates from the receiver mounted on the dog’s back rather than from the neck.

TONE BEHIND THE HEAD

When the compatible receiver emits tone, the sound originates from the top-mounted receiver behind the dog’s head.

THE HEART BEHIND THE HARNESS

Built for the dogs we love.

Relay began with Jackson and a question about how remote-trainer communication could move beyond the collar. Today, Colby and the people behind Dawg-Tec carry that work forward.

It is a product story with a personal beginning.
