Canny Collar No-Pull Dog Head Collar | Gentle & Humane Leash Training Aid for Medium Dogs | Stops Pulling – Comfortable Control for Walking & Obedience | Black, Size 4

This collar is a miracle. I have recently added an abandoned, neglected pit bull/boxer mix dog to my home. He's 70 lbs and approx. 3 1/2 years old. He was never socialized and had no idea how to walk on a leash. He was tied to a tree his whole life and left in a basement all day. When I first got him, he would pull me all over the neighborhood. People would stop their cars and say "I don't think you're walking that dog, but that dog is definitely walking you!" I hired a dog obedience trainer, and he had me get a pinch/prong collar. That collar helped a little, but if he wanted to pull me somewhere, he would endure the pain of the pinch collar and still pull. I tried a harness, and while that was better than just a plain old collar, he still pulled like crazy. I then got the "Halti Opti Fit" collar. This definitely helped with pulling, but my dog hated being led with the strap underneath his chin. He would jerk his head side to side, and was just very unhappy (and i was very anxious and nervous). On top of that, the Halti Optifit broke after only 2 days. The material was thin and cheap. Enter the Canny Collar. This collar is wonderful. Well made, seems very durable, and a very smartly made collar. I got my dog the size 4. Initially I got him the size 3 because reviews on here said it runs big, but that was almost too small. If he even gains 2 lbs. more, the size 3 would not fit. He has a big neck and a long muzzle. My dog initially fought the strap that goes around his muzzle; he would try to pull it off with his paws and went crazy flying through the house! I walked him all over my house (indoors), and gave him a treat every 5 feet, and he relaxed after only 5-10 minutes. After only that initial craziness, he never fought the collar again. He walked on this leash so peacefully and calmly, it was amazing. He wouldn't pull me, and when we would walk past other dogs, he would pretty much keep walking (maybe a slight growl, but kept walking). I think this collar is sturdy and strong, and doesn't seem like it will ever slip off. I suggest you watch the video on the Canny Collar website to see how to put it on, because it's a little tricky at first. It only takes 1 time to figure it out.... I highly suggest this collar! Has brought me so much peace, has lessened my anxiety greatly (and my dog's), and is starting to make walking my dog a joy!!

We love it!!! Absolutely love! My pup is almost a year now and we got it when he was around 8 months old. He never paid attention on walks and always lead with his nose. This head halter was a game changer. I had tried so many other postive training methods but we never made any progress over so many months. Starting to loose patience, and worrying that my training would never pay off, I bought the canny collar here on amazon. It came fast and in perfect condition. I measured my pup but the collar is still a little big, I am on the first hole but I still works great.Now that we have worked with the canny collar for several months we are transitioning to loose leash walking with a flat collar and things are going great! We also hope to transition to a front clip or back clip harness.Before the canny collar my husband would take the pup for a walk when I got too frustrated because we could only do small short walks and leash training sessions. My pup was just to distracted outside. And my husband didn't mind the pulling on the walks. For me it was so disheartening with all the effort and training we had put in. The day we got the canny collar I was so impressed! It was such a relief to be able to take the dog on a walk and know that we would be able to go a good distance. Me and pup took like 8 walks that first weekend we got the collar!!*** The canny collar has helped with - pulling, loose leash walking, communication between dog and owner, Improved communication between dog and leash, has helped with pup's anxiety with family walks when we have kids walking, some in wagons and some on bikes which used to be to much for the pup to handle with constant barking.

It’s a good product. I like it better than the gentle leader as it pulls from behind. But, my cattle dog figured it out in two minutes. Figures… as soon as she takes tension off it, as in just backing up, and then she lowers her head, it drops off the bridge of her nose. The yellow plastic buckle thing doesn’t hold in place. Now I do have to admit that an Australian Cattle dog has a short snout area. So that is an issue. But… when it sits on properly, works very well.

It does not work as a redirect face collar. I didn't want to return it after my dog used it, so I just cut the long, so-called redirect part of the collar off, and we just use the collar itself. The collar itself is well-made and strong, with a legit metal buckle to help keep big dogs back with you where they need to be kept. The size was true to measure, but the nose band is poorly designed.
