Description

Dr. Mark Johnson of Global Wildlife Resources introduced the Y pole to the animal welfare community in 2008. It is an essential tool for difficult to manage dogs within a facility and also for wildlife professionals working with fractious canids. The Y pole is only effective for restraining animals which are already cornered or captured, but not yet safe enough to handle. The Y pole is a humane tool to gently control an animal. It is made with rust-resistant thicker aluminum for extra durability.

It allows practitioners to perform simple hands-on procedures such as:

  • Additional physical restraint
  • Injecting vaccinations, antibiotics, or anesthesia
  • Partial physical examinations and minor treatment of wounds

Features

  • Extra Padding: To help protect canine teeth.
  • Lightweight & Balanced: Easily maneuver in place and hold in position longer
  • Easily Adjustable Length: Thumb button locks securely in place to quickly secure the best position.
