Product Description

The Gentle Leader Headcollar is a perfect no-pull solution to help improve leash manners and the bond between you and your dog. Designed by trainers, the Gentle Leader Headcollar is loved and trusted by vets and pet parents and has helped improve 5 million walks around the world. This training tool is best for dogs who pull because it interrupts your dog’s natural instinct to pull against pressure. The headcollar loops around your dog’s nose, so when he pulls, it gently moves his head toward you so he can refocus his attention on you and away from other distractions. Although this training tool rests on your dog’s snout, it doesn’t work like a muzzle. Your best friend still has the freedom to eat a treat, drink water and catch a tennis ball at the dog park. The quickest way to help your dog feel comfortable wearing his new headcollar is to let him wear it without a leash attached while he does all his favorite activities. The best part is, once your dog is a champ at walk etiquette, you will probably only have to use the headcollar as a backup during situations when you need a little more control, like visits to the vet. This headcollar won’t fit our furry friends with super short snouts (like pugs or bulldogs). If you have a dog with a short snout, check out our Easy Walk No-Pull Dog Harness. You can purchase the Gentle Leader Headcollar risk-free because whether the headcollar isn’t the right size or your dog mistakes the harness for a chew toy, our Customer Care team is happy to assist you with a new size or replacement. You and your dog will soon enjoy pull-free walks together. Trust PetSafe to help keep your pet healthy, safe and happy.

2,122 customers mention513 positive1,609 negative

Customers are not satisfied with the durability of the collar. They mention that it breaks easily, the side that goes over the neck seems a bit flimsy, and the plastic clip on theirs broke pretty soon after they got it. They also mention that the metal latch broke and the thread is starting to fray. Overall, some customers are disappointed with the quality of the product and recommend looking for a different product.

"...Used daily for 2 months and then one day it broke! Luckily he did not run off and I was able to wrangle him up...." Read more

"...However, the reason I am giving this only 4 stars is because it’s not super secure...." Read more

478 customers mention0 positive478 negative

Customers dislike the tightness of the collar. They mention that the metal clasp is pretty tight, and it's hard to clasp under the chin. The plastic piece is also tight, but it easily gets loose. Customers have now bought 4 collars because they keep snapping.

"...Also, the latch sometimes open and his mouth would be free, but it could be error on my part, not sure" Read more

"...in one side of the clips upside down it can get stuck and will not release." Read more

"...But there is no way to loosen it because if she pulls, it tightens back up." Read more

"...I'm honestly still not sure if it's correct. It seems a tad tight, but any looser and she can get it off her nose...." Read more

This Is Pretty Close To A Miracle!

This Is Pretty Close To A Miracle!
We adopted a Pyredoodle (Great Pyrenees/Poodle mix) about a year and a half ago. He is a rescue dog named Karl. Adopt don’t shop! He was only a year old and we were his fourth home because he is huge and no one had taken the time to work with him and so he was out of control with his manners. He is absolutely gorgeous and the sweetest dog you ever met. He has calmed down quite a bit since we’ve had him and worked with him, but he was super wild on a leash and would end up yanking me down the street, so I never was able to take him for a walk. I had seen people who had these things on their dogs, and I always thought that it was like a muzzle or something and that the dog must be a biter or the people were mean for putting that on their dogs snout. I saw this on Amazon and it had excellent reviews and I saw what it was for, so I figured I would get one, even though I basically had zero faith that it would work.. I got it a few weeks ago and put it on him around the house for a few minutes at a time several times. I let him eat with it on, as was suggested, to make sure it was not too tight. Today we tried it out! I am in awe! Karl was a perfect gentleman the whole time we walked around the neighborhood for an hour. I don’t ever write reviews because I’m not easily impressed by things, but this is simply amazing! I think everyone who has a dog who is having a hard time being trained on a leash should get one of these. Both dog and owner will be so much happier!

4.0 out of 5 stars Life changing! Until it broke…
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2024
This leash was life changing for my dog who pulled. It worked immediately and he was no longer pulling. Used daily for 2 months and then one day it broke! Luckily he did not run off and I was able to wrangle him up. I guess I should have been checking to see if the hook was loose or fraying. I will repurchase, but from a better quality brand. Overall this is a good starter to see if a gentle leader works for your pup.
