Game-changing ear covers.
Active ear covers are a pivotal feature of the K9 helmet, enhancing both communication and safety. These ear covers serve a dual purpose: they protect the sensitive hearing of canines from loud noises, such as gunfire or explosions, while simultaneously facilitating seamless communication between handlers and their canine counterparts. The ability to relay vocal commands directly through the ear covers ensures that dogs can respond promptly to instructions, even in high-stress environments. Dark Systems is the first manufacturer of K9 helmets to integrate active hearing protection in order to offer an optimal and adequate solution.
