     OMG 😳 what just happened? I literally wanna break down and cry 🤣🤣 this head collar works like a charm. I was absolutely skeptical about this to work on my super crazy 1 year old dog. This was the very first time that I have ever enjoyed a walk with him. I have had tried all sorts of harnesses and leashes on him before and they never worked. This one works and is half price of what they sell at the stores. I absolutely recommend.

    This is the greatest invention for forward or hard pulling dogs. I have a 6 month puppy with a mind of his own. He is learning but everything is new. He is 30 lbs plus and I am not a strong woman. The gentle leader makes a walk a joy. He is still forward but can no longer have his way. Now we can start gentle training to keep an eye on me. This will be a work in progress. Be sure to follow the fit instructions. I have seen too many improperly fitted head harnesses. The nose band should have a little play.
    The harness is well made. Should last a long time.

    Totally ripped off the below article from –> (http://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/are-head-collars-on-dogs-dangerous-or-safe)
    …but it says it all. It works great for our dog

    Attached to leashes are tools designed to help you control your dog by guiding its head, just as halters and lead ropes are used to help control horses. An animal tends to go where its head goes. So, if the dog (or horse) wants to pull on the leash and its head can’t move, it can’t pull you so well. If the dog (or horse) wants to head in one direction and you want to go in another, gently (but not daintily) guide its head in the direction you want to lead the animal.

    The nice thing about head collars is that with some dogs, owners can just slap a head collar on and the dog suddenly walks nicely on leash, including around distractions that the dog would have barked and lunged at in the past. But in some cases, dogs randomly paw at the funny gear hanging off their faces the way you’d paw at pesky flies buzzing around your head. In other cases, the dog walks nicely and on a loose lead but, when he sees a distraction, he starts to sprint several feet to the end of the leash or barks and lunges and flails to get at the dog, cat, or person in the distance while fighting to get its head loose. Now if this were a person, flailing on the end of a leash attached to an apparatus on his head, he’d surely have a neck injury. But anyone who has seen a dog that goes to town playing tug-o-war knows that a dog’s neck is built differently. Because of this neck strength, few cases of injury due to head collars have been proven or medically documented (I actually haven’t seen any). Not to say injury could not happen. However, veterinary documented injuries caused or exacerbated by choke chain corrections and electronic collars are easy to find. . Most likely if dogs are pulling on their head collar a lot or running to the end, they may need massage or chiropractic care just the way people who work or study at a desk all day need back adjustments periodically. In fact, I think I need a lower back adjustment right now.

    The Basics of Teaching Dogs to Understand Head Collar Guidance
    The fact of the matter is, that as a trainer, if you’re concerned about injury due to head collars or difficulty accepting the collar, it’s best to learn the skills needed to actually train the dog to love wearing the head collar and walk politely on a head collar, as well as to teach the owner how to correctly guide the dog in an anatomically natural way. The first step of training dogs to love the head collar is easy. Just pair the head collar with food and systematically train the dog to stick its head further and further through. In most cases where the food and the collar are handled correctly, the dog can learn to shove his nose through in just a minute or two. Practice over several sessions if you’re worried that your dog will especially dislike wearing something odd on his head. On a side note, this method for training dogs to love their head collar is virtually identical to training dogs to love wearing a muzzle.

    Once the dog is good at shoving his nose into the head collar, then put the head collar on. Keep the dog focused on you instead of the funny thing on his face. You can lure him with a treat to hurry and follow you a few steps at a time; if he’s doing well after you repeat this five to ten times, increase the number of steps he must take to get the treat. You can also use targeting instead of luring if he already knows how to touch a target with his nose and loves it.

    Once your dog’s walking nicely and no longer has the desire to paw the head collar, it’s time to teach him that the leash has a limit. Every time his front feet pass yours, meaning he’s just a second or two from getting far enough ahead to pull, stop dead in your tracks. That will make it clear you’ve stopped and even the slightest pull will mean a halt to his forward movement. Once he clearly steps back towards you and then stands with a loose leash (or better yet, sits), walk forward briskly on a loose leash.

    In other words, he learns the leash hanging in a lazy “U” means he gets to walk forward. If the leash starts to tighten, it means you’re stopping. By doing this consistently for as little as one 5-10 minute session, Fido can learn that the leash has a limit that’s predictable. Note: in order for Fido to learn this and continue walking nicely you have to be consistent about how you walk and hold the leash. If you sometimes let him walk ahead and pull a little such that the leash is hanging but like a wide smiley face, or if you stop when his feet get ahead of yours but instead of keeping your leash–holding hand down low at your side– you let Fido pull your hand forward when he continues to walk, you’re sending mixed signals about what you want. Fido may never clearly get what you’re imagining in your head. Have someone watch you so that you can see if you’re always being clear.

    Now that Fido can walk with a head collar on in a non-distracting environment, you may be ready to guide him better when distractions appear. When you see something that normally catches his eye, react ahead of time so that he can’t run to the end of a his 6-foot lead. Hold his leash so it’s just one to two feet long but still handling loosely so that you can easily and quickly guide Fido in the direction you want to go. If you hold the leash that way, it will only tighten when you head in the new direction if Fido does not immediately follow. Then, so that Fido knows you have a direction in mind, you must clearly and quickly move in the different direction the same way you’d move if you and a friend were jogging and you had to grab her arm to guide her away from the hole she was about to fall in (To understanad the importance of movement, read Dealing with Difficult Dogs at the Vet: 5 Tips That Don’t Involve Food or Training Time).

    Head Collars Are Most Effective and Safe if You Have the Necessary Skills
    Of course the choice to use a head collar is up to the individual; however, if you’re a dog trainer, it’s helpful to know why a head collar might be useful and how to use it more skillfully, beyond the basics described above. The number one reason I recommend head collars to some owners is that a head collar can level the playing field for owners who have mediocre timing and speed. Because the owners are able to guide the head, they can more easily get their dogs’ attention. The use of a head collar can greatly speed up the process of training dogs to focus on their owners and perform fun, polite behaviors instead of reacting to other dogs, people and stimuli. When used correctly, a head collar can even help control anxious dogs so that they can calm down enough to focus and take treats.

    My dog is no longer pulling me down the street. Our walks are now much longer because it is so much more enjoyable to walk her. Best money I have spent on a training color. Very simple, easy to use, not bulky which I like best, and now I look forward to our 4 walks a day.
    Highly receommend Petsafe Gentle Leader.👍🐕

    Compre uno en liverpol (tienda departamental) Por el mismo precio y este se ve de menor calidad. Funciona bien y es lo que se describe. Solo que por no ser de la marca quizá podría costar un poco menos o valdría la pena comprarlo directamente con la marca

    I adopted a 3.5 year old, 40 lb English pointer almost 3 weeks ago. She is a puller and I had been using a harness. Within 3 days I had shin splints. So I went to a dog trainer who used a slip leash. It did cut back on the pulling quite a bit but I did worry about chafing. And eventually I changed my fingers. Tried the no pull harness from PetSafe but the sizes just weren’t a good fit. Also tried a different no pull harness but because she still pulls it would chafe her armpit area. Was resistant to a gentle leader although 2 people recommended it because I thought it wouldn’t allow the dog to eat or drink but when I saw it during prime days I read more about it. Seeing the rave reviews, I decided to give it a go. Oh my God! It’s voodoo! No pulling! I actually enjoyed the walk. She doesn’t like it on her face and at times would try to paw it off to no success. Yes, I’ve been giving her treats while using it and putting it on and off. Guess l’ll keep trying with various treats. This is a godsend!
