Two-point dog carrying strap for the Vartoviy K9 body armor operator
The Vartoviy K9 two-point tactical lead is gear for carrying and evacuating a dog by an operator in full kit. A two-point attachment to the Vartoviy K9 body armor or tactical vest distributes the load evenly and frees the hands. A 25 mm polyamide load strap and a central bungee shock absorber dampen jerks during movement, while two HK-snap carabiners made of 6061-T6 alloy open with one hand even in a glove. Working length is 1.2 m, stretching to 1.6 m with the absorber — enough to carry a dog over the arm or across the shoulder. A waist loop with a Fastex buckle lets you quickly integrate the lead with your gear. Price — 1 000 ₴, warranty — 12 months, delivery across Ukraine and to the EU.
