The Catching wand is purpose designed and manufactured in the USA! It is a specialized tool invented by Marty to aid in bringing the catch rope over the head and back to the handler all without having to get closer than arm’s length. The wand is 4 feet long, and very stiff giving the handler full control over the rope. When used with halter training rope/catch rope you can teach an animal that it is safe for you to approach. Using this method for catching is the center piece of CAMELIDynamics and is THE BEST WAY to teach frightened animals that it is safe to be around humans.

Llamas and alpacas are highly dependent on their ability to move away from danger. Use the corner-grab-hold approach to catching your animal and you will teach your animals to run from you whenever they get the opportunity.
The Long Catch Rope/ Halter Training Rope can be used alone in a variety of ways (see the Camelid Companion book), but when used with a Catching Wand, the results are dramatic. Using a long wand and a long catch rope allows you to desensitize an animal to your approach. It will help you teach your animal to override his flight response and remain standing while you approach. Taking the time to teach your animals to have confidence pays off every time you work with them, whether in the show ring or while trimming toenails.
If you have an animal that is difficult to catch, kicks, spits, kushes or screams, the catch rope and catching wand are the secrets to change.
The rope is a hand-spliced high-quality marine nylon rope, available only in white.

Showing well is hard enough without trying to do it with a lead that isn’t as good as it could be. The Zephyr Show lead is longer (6 feet) than the typical show lead and features the lightweight hook without a swivel that supports giving subtle and specific cues to the animal about his balance and gait. All colors are double-sewn nylon, high quality and match the halters.
* Please note that the brass hook is appropriately strong and serviceable for the purpose of training but is NOT intended for restraint of any kind or for tying difficult or untrained animals.

This lead is composed of 28 inches of hand-spliced nylon rope connected to 88 inches of flat nylon lead. The rope’s total length is 9.5 feet, allowing the handler to use a variety of leading techniques. The weight of the rope end helps to provide a connection with the handler, and the wider flat nylon is perfect for giving refined signals.

The Ultimate lead is the same great design as the training lead, with one really important added feature: an 8-foot extension that attaches with a lightweight fastex buckle. This extension can be disconnected and stowed when it isn’t needed. Marty invented the ultimate lead as a tool for teaching young animals to lead and to protect the handler’s arm and shoulder when leading green animals in new situations where they might spook and bolt. When used in a long, narrow lane way, the Ultimate lead makes short work of teaching a youngster to lead and all but eliminates the tendency of young animals to kush when learning to lead.
* Please note that the brass hook is appropriately strong and serviceable for the purpose of training, but is NOT intended for restraint of any kind or for tying difficult or untrained animals.
