So I tried the canny halter, immediate difference. It took a couple of days for her to get use to it, and at high exciting times she can still bounce though I now have control.
It’s safer for her, for me and for people and dogs we meet.
She is still the busy, curious dog we love, though now it’s a better experience all round without the consistent pulling.
I would say that it is not easy to use with little instructions but I finally worked it out and I must say it certainly makes my dog behave well on the lead. With a dog weighing under 6 stone of pure muscle the pulling was killing my arms but that has all gone when using this lead. The only thing is my dog fights to get it off but I guess that will stop over time.

I have a 40 kg, 6 month old Leonberger puppy. Once she got to around 4 months, no matter what we tried, she pulled like a train. Once she got to 5 months, I stopped taking her out because it was too dangerous. I genuinely cried sometimes because I have a dog I really love but just could not walk her. She lurched at strangers, she dragged me down the street. Indoors she pretty much obeys every command. Outside she turns into a deaf 40kg dangerous to us and herself, embarrassment. In truth we only got away with her leaping on strangers for so long because she is a puppy and most people knew her from 8 weeks. Obviously most people know her because we never took her more than 10 minutes without giving up. I fought against any kind of head collar; hate the idea. Eventually, when even other half struggled to take her and he is fairly strong and even he was making excuses not to, I caved in. The first two weeks were traumatic, obviously she hated it, why wouldn’t she? It slipped off, until we learned the technique for keeping it on. Now it never comes off. Today I came back, for the first time from a 30 minute pleasurable walk. All I can say is, if you have tried every training method you can google and it hasn’t worked, then do try a head collar. No matter how much you hate the idea, it’s better than not enjoying taking your dog out. I actually think she enjoys her walk more now, even though she can’t do exactly what she wants; probably because we are relaxed now taking her. Downside, yes it is a bit fiddly to get on but after 3 weeks or so, we can now put it on her within seconds.
I can now walk my Rottie again. Hes amazing with all his training except walking to heal. He became to strong for me to walk. This makes him walk lovely beside me. I had to train him to wear it, a few days with treats. After that he was happy to wear it. Hope this helps. I recommend it to anybody who is being dragged down the street lol.
It’s easy to put on, but my dog hates it didn’t use i
My dog is 9 stone and this is the only lead that has worked. Previous leads and harnesses have led to me being pulled over and falling flat on my face. Would totally recommend

My 6month old collie was an absolute nightmare to walk. She’d pull us in all directions n just not listen to us at all. Now with this Collar its a joy to walk her.
Yes, like other comments mentioned, our dog made a fuss for the first few moments. But she then accepted it. And to be fair you cannot really blame the product for your own dogs nature in my opinion.
Great product! Highly recommended
Used today on my 5 month Doberman.She Had become almost impossibly difficult to walk. Pulling and jumping . Difference was instant and amazing and I feel that my teenage kids and wife will now be able to also walk her. First walk was a 70% success and later walk today more like a 90%. Doberman’s are incredibly intelligent and they know they are beat when this is on them. Although they will always try and take it off…Highly recommended and saved the day.
Pretty simple to use but my dog kept slipping himself out of it! Definately does the job though if it would stay on!
Was sceptical about this as I didn’t think there was anything that would make going for a walk enjoyable. Our my constantly pulled and was almost unmanageable. The first use of this collar showed that it was exactly what we needed. Worked absolute wonders on out Belgian malinois!
Seems to fit my spaniel well but not as good as a halti for dog feeling my movement. However, it is more comfy for my dog to pant and she likes to stick her tongue out and can do this with the Canny collar.
My Bearded Collie loves everyone. To the extent that he would pull me off my feet to give whoever he met a leap up resounding welcome. A bit unnerving for the recipient! With the canny collar he can now wait to be invited, at a sit, and will keep all four paws on the ground. Brilliant!
As a well practised sceptic, I thought I’d give this a go as a last resort, hoping for the best, but expecting the worst, as my shoulders and knees were telling me, “enough is enough!”
Well, well, well!! After fitting it (straight forward enough), a litlle practice walk around the garden and 5 minutes of him getting used to it, I went for a walk around the block. It’s like having a different dog!! Unbelievable difference!
Now hopefully my days of constant painful shoulders and knees may be over – and the dog has a stay of execution!!
P.S. Anyone got any ideas for recall?!! 🙂
From a dog that pulled every time i took him out (daily) stopped pulling straight away with this on, so easy to walk him now, a bit awkward to put on to start with but found it got easier the more i used it. Excellent product and i am going to get another one for my other dog, a 3 1/2 stone collie cross.

I received this collar yesterday – I’m actually concerned they didn’t send a collar, but an entirely different dog.
Initially the beagle was unhappy with the collar and froze in anxiety, then after a few minutes industriously tries to paw it away from her about. After a few futile minutes she realised it wasn’t going anywhere and gave up… So we went for a walk.
Now three walks in and she is at heel, relaxed lead with no tension required. Absolute miracle cure, and the beagle is still busy sniffing everything we walk by, appears to be delightfully happy and unconcerned about the snout fabric.
Long may she continue to act like this, but no matter what she does in the future this has worked like no other product.
Thank you Canny Collar! I’ll admit my scepticism has been completely disproven. I would highly recommend this to anyone with an over excited tugging pup.
We got a figure of 8 lead which was the best before this one, until our Sprocker started leaning into heavily and ended up snorting like a pig due to the pressure it then exerted on her nose…
We bought a harness and although initially it seemed to improve things, she started tanking.
So the Canny Collar is a big improvement as she hasn’t made any pig sounds.. yet. She does bounce like a Kangaroo on it periodically and my older children find this very difficult to put up with but my husband has taken her out on it a few times too and if you ignore this and allow more slack in the lead, it means she can’t constantly do it, generally she walks very nicely. I’d not been able to walk her as she kept pulling on my arm so much I had pain through my shoulders but with this I have no pain in my shoulders… All we need is for her to drop the kangaroo impressions and it’ll be perfect.
When we first put it on she hated it as it was so different. We decided to put it on a few times for her to get used in the house (maybe twice) then a short walk in the garden before we ventured out. Honestly it has changed my life. No more pulling and walks lovely next to me or on a longer lead without pulling. Within a day she was walking better and by day two an absolute different dog. Best 18 I’ve spent. It’s amazing how much better she is. I now enjoy our walks together and my shoulder is no longer painful from the pulling.
My husband walked her today and I know he thought I was exaggerating the difference. He came back gobsmacked. She doesn’t even pull out the door anymore. She’s like a different dog. I can’t recommend this collar enough.
After trying a lot of harness to stop my boisterous collie puppy from pulling . a fellow dog walker told be about the cannie collar, so i dutifully ordered a size 3 , arrived next day . following day i tried the collar on our walk, to start with she tried to paw it of her nose but with in 5 minutes she was walking beside me and she did not pull when she saw other dogs, highly recommend this i just wish i had heard about this collar sooner. Makes walking the dog a joy now not a chore .
I bought this collar for my Beagle cross because she is very strong on a harness. I’m very impressed. Honey seems happy with it on unlike a Halti where she shook her head, rubbed her nose on the ground and pawed at it. Walking her has now become a joy for us both

I’ve never written any review before but I’m so impressed with this product I wanted to share the positive response I had from my puppy. He’s a 5 month old cockapoo who wanted to pull and tug all the time. Verbal training didn’t work. It took a few minutes to work out the fitting instructions but eventually worked it out. First time I walked puppy up and down the road he wasn’t impressed. Second walk that evening was just brilliant, after one or two pulls, he completely changed and walked by my side and was a joy to walk.
Bought this for my puppy to try to stop him pulling. Effective immediately. He walks nicely by my side now. Unlike other head collars I’ve used, this doesn’t leave a mark across the dogs face. Therefore I believe it must be more comfortable for the dog. When I let him off lead, I have to wind the slip lines around his neck and secure them with a clip provided. This is awkward as I have arthritis in my hands. That’s the only down side. I’m more than happy with it overall and would definitely recommend
Nothing wrong with it – fits OK but my dog hates it. However she is reactive with other dogs and needs a head collar so I can control her and not be pulled over (I have 2 large dogs!) so it serves its purpose and she will need to get used to it.
Our dog has always pulled and whilst this is not a magic instant solution it is certainly a lot easier than before!
She didn’t like it st first and kept trying to remove it with her paws but got used to it after about 5 walks with it.
Make sure you use it for training a dog to walk beside you rather than letting them wander about all over the place. Also note that the plastic buckle goes under the chin, not on the nose!
This fits ok, and stops pulling, but does slip off my dog’s nose quite frequently, if he lowers his head. I will keep trying!
My cousin advised me to buy this as we both have strong dogs that pull, this has completely changed our walks now, im so happy! No more looking like my dog is walking me and no more arm and hand pain! The mouth piece did slip off a couple of times but then I just slip it right back on and go on with our walk. He did try to paw it off for the 1st min or 2 but seemed just fine for the rest of our journey. I’m so happy I can now happily extend the length of our walks and its no longer a chore but a joy!!!
Very pleased so far. Seems comfortable for him to wear. No snorting due to pressure on nose as with his figure of 8 lead, which was dreadful to listen to while out walking. Only been using couple of days but shall continue and will be buying another one for our other boy as he pulls on occasions

Absolutely amazing collar!! I never do reviews but had to for this! We were about to pay out a fortune in dog training for our huge 1 year old lab who was pulling me half way down the road every day and I really had no control over over him when he saw other dogs or people! This collar was like Magic! It instantly worked. He walks by my heel now and I could walk him for hours…. Occasionally if he tries to paw it off I just give him a treat but he after a week he doesn’t bother trying to get it off now… We just enjoy our walks.
He was uncontrollable on a normal body harness always pulling forward which would cause him to make a constant grunting noise like a pig…! He was completely comfortable we presume otherwise he would have let up, surely… but it sounded horrendous and damaging to his health..
Tried standard halti which did calm him down and he walked to a heal and calmly, however, Mum, nor I for the matter, like the way the halti yanks the dogs head to the side, looks really uncomfortable and is a completely unnatural movement…
Hallelujah…. found canny dog collar in a pet shop in Wales on a holiday, but he didn’t have the right size but the proprietor let us try the next size up and go for a stroll…… The difference was astonishing…TRULY.. it was like we were walking the most relaxed and trained dog ever..
The difference is that the design, instead of pulling to the side, it gently pulls their nose directly downward, which he doesn’t like of course so he just lets up and carries on calmly.
The collar is so easy to use.
You can wear it as a normal collar if he/she is behaving or just a SUPER SIMPLE alteration with the adjuster which creates slack at the front and you just slip the slack over the nose (all without having to detach the collar)
Super easy to use, versatile in that you can have the halti engaged or not within 20 seconds , 100% result and much more dog friendly than yanking your loved dogs head 90 degrees left or right… I think it’s a game changer for Haltis or at least should be… thanks if you got this far 🙂
Had one previously for my Weimaraner but now it’s a cocker spaniel think the nose band should have a bit of softening to it but by far the best collor you can buy we use it with a harness attached so just need to move finger forward slightly to give a little movement on double ended lead so he’s not really always on the canny collar slightest correction is all that is needed

Definitely helps control the pulling – our rescue is a big puller and the Canny has helped to keep her more under control than most collars and braces we have tried. Still puts pressure under her eye, but not as much as the head-harness style we previously had. It agitates her less too.
Considering trying it on our other dog now too to see if it assists with his pulling, which has got worse.
I’ve tried many different ways to stop pulling over the years & I have to say that this was far & away the best solution I’ve used.
Unlike similar collars that pull the head to one side due to the way it connects, this one helps you remain in control at all times.
Quality of product is exceptional in terms of stitching & materials.
After a week of using on one dog, I purchased a second collar for my other dog with similar impressive results.
Highly recommend.

I do not think I have ever given a 5 star rating so this is an exception. I have two dogs one of whom always pulls. Read reviews for Canny Collar. Yes he took it off his nose and “laughed” having done so. First time he rolled on the ground to try and take it off as per another review but realised after a few seconds that it was futile. They both quite happily have collar put on and now walk without pulling. Have recommended this collar to other people I know who have dogs who pull. Yes it does actually work within five minutes

Abit fiddly to get on (but I do have 2 dogs that loves their walks so much, they can’t wait.) I’ve found this product and size to be good, but hasn’t stopped the pulling, eased it but it’s a work in progress (1 dog yes, 2nd dog definitly work in progress.)
Once you have wrestled your dog in to it it works a treat. My dogs are prone to fits of madness when out and about. They never fail to humiliate me and find interesting new ways to do so. However, the fight back begins in a shape of a canny collar. I let mine of leash in open spaces that don’t have obstacles (like children or other dogs). I have to wrap the lead straps round the collar when I do this but it’s still worth it to be able to walk past a person/dog/horse without the berzonkers palaver I am used to. I nearly almost like taking them out again! Jokes aside you have to persevere, it’s tricky to get on at first and the dog rub a bit to try to get it off but you really do have control
Great colour , I bought size 4 from shop for my gsd used it but really to small , so bought this one thinking I would get a size 6 just in case , should have got a size 5 , you live and learn , so if you have a gsd with a big mane i would go for a 5 , the 6 is ok round neck but straps a bit long , having bought many collars like theses in the past the canny collar is by far the best , Thank you
Great improvement on the halti I have been using. So delighted that I immediately ordered another one for my other dog. He was so anti the halti that he kept pulling it off and I would find that he had got the whole thing off. Not a good thing when walking the streets. This Canny collar is great because although he can get the nose band off, I still have him under control through the collar. Also overall I have more control over him, no more pulling me which in turn puts my back out. Certainly to be recommended. I have tried the rest, now I’ve got the BEST

Our german boxer is 12months old and he is taking his time with lead training. He isn’t awful but when he sees kids, dogs or motorbikes he wants to be with them asap. We have bought lots of different collars to help with his pulling but this one seems to be the only one that helps. It reduces the power of his pull so that you can manage him , now if he doesn’t have it on he can and usually does go back to how he was before but the canny collar is allowing us to heal train him without pulling our arms out of our sockets.
Best buy yet and he can’t chew it which was the problem with another make.
Found instructions were just pictures, not very detailed, or any English writing in detail,
(Its not just plug in and it works)
So someone like my mum, on her own would have struggled.
I set box up,
it does make a difference though. Since using we no longer have streaming issues upstairs (modem downstairs)
As long as you know your WiFi passwords and have a bit of patience it works.
I like this, my dog hates it. I can’t say if it works or not as I couldn’t get my dog out of the front door with it on, however, my friend managed to succeed with her dog and she says it really does work and is much kinder than the halti as it does not pull the dogs head to one side.
Meanwhile my difficult spoilt brat is back in her harness. Ho hum.
My little Scottie is so well behaved when wearing the collar….no lunging at cats,squirrels and some other dogs….he walks well on his normal collar but this is great when I know there will be lots of dogs and other furries around…..it also takes the strain out of my back as a sudden lunge can cause problems..I had no problems when I first tried it on him,as a treat to reward him worked well ..as its not really tight on his nose I don’t think he can feel it with his Scottie beardexcept when he lunges…would recommend.

So far we’ve used it on three walks and immediately the difference was noticeable. At last no more pulling!!! The dog even looks more comfortable as it’s not pulling the lead past the side of her face.
I’d recommend this product to anyone who has a dog that pulls!!
After trying numerous leads, collars and harnesses for my crazy young Labrador who takes me for walks, this collar is amazing! It’s early days as have only used it for a couple of days but the difference already, is remarkable. I do however suggest buying from Mr Pets as it includes instructions. I had to return one, (which I thought was too small) to another seller, which probably would have been ok if I had known how to fit it correctly! The size 5 is a little too big but I’m sure my Lab will grow into it very soon! Super fast delivery so I’m a very happy customer!
This is my second purchase of a Canny Collar. First one was around 8-9 years ago for our Springer who would pull on a standard lead. Whilst this is OK for short walks it’s not great on long walks.
The original item has fared very well and still works perfectly. I tried our original collar on our new puppy and decided I needed to buy another.
I now walk both dogs on these collars for long walks. There is still a little reluctance on the puppy’s part and he likes to try and rub it off his nose, but because the straps loop through the collar this isn’t a major problem and you still have the dog on the lead so no danger of them escaping.
Whilst this may not be a solution for all dogs I find that it works for me and our dogs.
The new collar is a little thicker and harder to put on than the old one but it certainly looks robust and well made and I can understand the cost given the quality of the product.
Item arrived quickly and well packaged – would recommend to friends.
Absolutely great!!!
Had tried a harness and a half-collar on my 16 month old Labrador but my arms were still being stretched with his pulling. Talked to a puppy walker from the ‘Guide dogs for the blind’ who recommended the Canny Collar so I thought I’d give it a go.
From the outset it was as though I’d had my dog swapped for this new well behaved, happy to walk alongside, no pulling alien. It was unbelievable the transformation and a few months later it’s still working great.
What a transformation!! Fantastic product, well made and I can’t recommend it highly enough.
If your dog pulls – get a Canny Collar!
I bought this for another dog as already had one. The buckle underneath seems to be far looser than the last one so the dog gets it off literally as soon as I stop walking. That said, it is still far better as stopping my husky x GSD pulling than all others. I was using a halty for that dog but it was putting pressure in his eye so would certainly but this over a halty
we bought this for the first time when on holiday in keswick. it is better than halti as it doesn,t rise up near dogs eyes .having said this the previous canny did have a part that snapped after a few months. i still think its a good collar for a very lively lab who pulled when out walking. it is now much more pleasant taking dog out without constant pulling on your neck & shoulders. it arrived quickly by pos
I tried a halti before this but the Canny is much better. It controls my strong Lab very well and she can’t get it off even by pulling backwards which she could with the halti. There was some initial resistance but she quickly learnt that walking quietly is the easiest. It is a little fiddly to release and then wrap the ends round to let her run and equally when it is fitted again to put her back on the lead but it is worth the effort. It means that my wife who has a bad shoulder can walk the dog without any problems, something she couldn’t do before
I was at my wits end having tried several other head collars ie figure of eight collar and the dogmatic (although the dogmatic was brilliant for my other dog). The only reason these didn’t work as my dog is not stupid and would face me and pull these off within seconds. The Canny Collar is brilliant. He cannot pull this off completely as its fastened around his neck as well but can pull it off his nose if not held firmly and is so easy to put back on. I now have control of him and he has stopped pulling and trying to jump on other dogs. I bought the size 7 as my dog is a 1 year old Newfoundland and is now 42kg and still growing. He has this collar on the tightest hole so there is still room for growth. I would recommend this to all who has a dog that pulls, jumps etc. I now look forward to walking him and not dreading it!
From the first time I used it, the collar slowed my dog down and stopped him pulling so much. Unfortunately he still hasn’t worked out that if he walks nicely it won’t put pressure on his nose. So walks are punctuated by him stopping and trying to get the nose strap off.
You have to be alert, because it is possible for dogs to get the strap off, if there’s is a bit of slack. My dog has learnt that if he drops behind me for a few seconds, he can sometimes get the strap off his nose.
The collar does the job, but is not yet an unqualified success.
The Canny Collar works and really stops my dog pulling on the lead. She didn’t like it at first and kept trying to get it off by rubbing her muzzle along the ground but quite quickly she stopped doing that and accepted it. It is a slightly different style of walking with this collar and I too had to get used to a slightly different way of leading her with it but it didn’t take long for both of us to get the hang of it and it definitely works.
I have a really strong Border Collie and have tried various head collars and harnesses. Without a doubt the Canny collar works the best and he doesn’t seem to mind wearing it. I like the way that his head doesn’t get pulled to one side when he pulls as happens with other head collars. This just arches his neck and he stops pulling. The only thing I would change would be not having a buckle to do up and have a clip instead, I find it a bit awkward ,especially this time of year having to remove gloves and hold on to my other dog as well. Apart from that small criticism, I really like the Canny collar.
I’ve got 2 of these collars for my excitable Cocker Spaniels. They do NOT stop dogs from pulling, although they certainly reduce the force they can exert. The dogs do not like wearing them and will rub their faces on the floor at any opportunity (which can result in some rather dirty ears!)
They are of good quality, although the carabiners are rather flimsy and have been replaced with sturdier ones from a camping shop.
Overall, these collars are a definite help especially when my children are leading, but they are not a miracle cure for dogs pulling.
