Dog Collar That Goes Around Mouth For Sale (2024 Update)

I had bought this a week ago in store. I'm so happy with the progress my dog has already made using this. He used to bolt out the gate but now hes always right by my side, checking in on me and making sure I'm keeping up with him. I've finally been able to loose leash walk him without having to worry about him running off. This has help so much in such a short time! I recommend this to one of my neighbors and they say its helped their dog too! My dog is 120 and it still helped, I thought it would completely snap but it's very durable!serena1234

I knew about this product for several weeks, but I delayed in getting it. I thought I'd give the puppy a chance with regular training methods (treats, praise, verbal corrections) before I started futzing with a special collar and have to buy it in two sizes. That was really stupid. I wish I would have bought it sooner and spent the money on the two sizes. I got this one in a size Medium and it fits perfectly with just an easy adjustment of the buckle. Our little man is a Labradoodle, now at about 32 lbs and expected to reach a 60-ish weight probably. He is VERY high energy, very strong and very smart, but our little darling is no longer little and I have been finding myself struggling with his 32 lb self pulling on the walks. I cannot imagine when he is full grown, so I decided finally to nip this in the bud and I ordered the gentle leader. It arrived today and I was amazed at how he has NO power to pull AT ALL. I even noticed that in many situations like when he would normally lunge at something, he didn't, maybe that is just from the novelty and will eventually wear off, but for today, it was as if he had a total attitude adjustment. It was like magic. He is none too pleased about the new situation, for sure, but I am pleased as punch. Will take a few days of working with him to get used to it so he stops trying to pull it down with his paws, but even when he was trying he couldn't get it off successfully unless I let off on the tension to the leash altogether which I was able to correct for easily enough. This is a truly genius product.9112melissa

I have an 18 month old standard poodle. I’ve had her since 9 weeks old. She’s full of energy and gets super excited. I’ve trained her well on a typical lead but I was having issues controlling her when she would get excited by people and animals. I have arthritis in my hands and wrists, I have shoulder problems as well. Every time I walked her I’d be in so much pain trying to pull her back. A service dog trainer suggested the gentle leader to me and it’s totally changed I no longer have the shoulder and back pain from pulling her back. She’s really a perfect angel now with her I bought four of them in different colors because they are so amazing. Please get one for your dog even if you don’t think you need it. You won’t be sorry!zina.c

The PetSafe Gentle Leader Headcollar is an innovative alternative to a traditional leash. It stops pulling, lunging, jumping, and other unwanted behaviors. It provides immediate, gentle control without choking your pup. It works like a halter on a horse- where the nose goes, the body will follow. Unlike other head collars, the Gentle Lead Headcollar wont come off so there's no need for safety straps. My dog seems to really enjoy this collar because it's painless and never chokes him. Pressure is applied to the back of the neck (rather than the front) reducing your dog's drive to pull forward against pressure. It's very easy to use and even comes with a training DVD.Neddy

So I adopted a 3 year old pitty who had no training outside of “sit”. I’ve been able to train her the basic commands but when it came to leash training and leash reactivity, I tried every thing in the book. Her reactions to other dogs were so severe that even with the prong collar, she would pull so hard she was choking herself to the point that she couldn’t even bark!! I watched the video and I actually gave her a few treats through the loop and when I put it on her she didn’t LOVE it but she didn’t hate it either. But to the point, she was immediately a different dog! She walked beside me and didn’t try to lead and we were even able to pass dogs without incident. She did attempt to roll around but I gave her a treat and praise and after a few trys it was smooth sailing. This needs 10 stars!Purpleunicorn84

I have used the Halti brand for years. I first used one on a German shepherd dog which constantly pulled. It even developed a throat problem. Put it on a Halti and after 15 mins of protest she was great. She also accepted the halti and got excited when she saw it as she knew it was walk time. I now have a English cocker who is exactly the same, after months of trying to get her to walk correctly I fitted a halti and it is instant calmness. I have used cheaper alternatives on my German shepherd but they really do not fit the face of the dog correctly and when the dog pulls it twists their face and it must have been uncomfortable for the dog. But Halti product fits the face of the dog correctly and gives the dog no discomfort so its a good win for everyone including the dog.noxas123

These DO work well, full stop. HOWEVER, considering the ease of knockoff product availability, and probably cheap material using overesas labor, the price is questionable, ESPECIALLY since the metal rings wear through the nylon. It is not as bad with this exact design, but I think Coastal branded Halti headcolars have 2 more metal rings. If you ever have to go through a metal detector, the metal is an issue. BUT the added safety strap to clip to another collar or harness, which includes a metal spring clip is important for when the metal ring cuts through the nose-band. Also check the nose-band often as when the padding rubs away, your dog will get a rub. Again the price could be better and there are fiber-reinforced synthetic hardware alernatives to the metal rings. But, overall this is a good product.onelonecowboy1886

I was sceptical as to whether the head harness would work on my large and very strong Salukis. It is very important to get your dog(s) used to putting their noses through it to begin with and becoming familiar with it. First walk with head harnesses fitted to both, and myself nervous as to how they would react. I neednt have worried. Not once did I have to say to them stop pulling. They were like normal well trained dogs, if you can believe that about a Saluki. Ive ordered two more for my other Saluki and Daschund, thats how good they are.oldcharmfreak

Should be made of stronger material. Some of the side bits are so flimsy the dog managed to chew through it whilst wearing it within seconds. I'd just put it on the dog. Made it unusable.This was the second one I had tried of the same product. I bought a small. Very dissapointed as they are not cheap. I've used Halti range for years and they have been brilliant but this particular design not at alljalmos

I honestly didn't believe the "guaranteed" no pulling but the collar actually made a HUGE difference the first time we used it. My pup doesn't love wearing it so when we stand still she'll lie down and try to pull it off, but it doesn't hurt her. It's a much better (and more effective) alternative than a choking collar. My dog is 31lbs (and growing) and our walks used to be quite painful as she's still learning to heel. The collar has made a world of difference: Now that she's used to it she tries to pull a little, but it's very gentle and nowhere near her pulling before. I can control her even in stores – it is such a pleasure to walk with her now!Hanne B

We've used this collar for a few weeks and have definitely seen improvement. When our 130 lb Asian Shepherd tries to lunge at a passing car we simply put tension on the leash and she stops. We are a little concerned with how sturdy and reliable it is. The true test will be when we come across either another dog or a deer. Fingers crossed!ked7526

We have tried every type of no-pill harness out there, and had given up. When I went to my locally owned pet shop to buy a new collar for my girl, I saw this harness and decided to give it a go. What a difference. She didn’t like it at first, but it only took a couple of days for her to stop pawing at it. Fitting the harness was so easy as is putting on for a walk. It’s very lightweight, and with the additional padding on the nose loop combined with the heat-cut ends of the straps being sewn so that they do not touch her fur means no chafing and no sore spots. Love this harness.Zora

I can’t remember exactly what year we would have gotten our first gentle leader, but I’ll always remember the doggo we got it for and what a life changer it was!! He was 120 pounds of pure muscle and we.had.tried.everything. Group training, private training, and all the types of collars I would never use today even if I didn’t have this amazing option (choke, pinch, shock…). Our vet had even recommended having a horse halter made for him. And then a friend suggested a gentle leader. Overnight, we went from dreading the walk and only taking them when the strongest in the family was available, to myself, the kids and even my parents being able to EASILY, with one hand and no strength required, walk this dog who literally dragged me across a soccer field once when I slid on wet grass but didn’t want to let go of his leash. It was probably right around twenty years ago, and sadly Bear has long ago been to the rainbow bridge. But we’ve had a few other large, strong pullers since and thankfully we knew from the beginning how to make walks fun and bearable for everyone. I only wish it hadn’t taken SO long for there to be some collars with a little design and color other than the same solid colors for so many years. And I can’t lie, I sure wish there were more choices than there are. But thankfully the gentle leader is still available. I’ve worried at times when it’s been hard to find at stores in our area – but no matter how many other harnesses I’ve tried (and there have been quite a few – mostly looking to try to raise the fashion game a little or avoid the initial struggle to get it off), nothing has worked like the gentle leader and I always just get another one. Please keep making and PLEASE keep increasing the color/pattern options.hallblack

I am so glad I took the chance and purchased these for my adorable and INSANELY CRAZY JRTs.I have tried it all. Obedience lessons, vibrate collars, halters, treats… but JRTs are very independent minded and unless you spend THOUSANDS on training, forget it.I have disabilities so walking my beloved pups was a challenge most daysMy male is still adjusting. He doesn't like it.However, he will fight a bit but once he puts the one part where the clasp connects to leader and then believes he's walking himself, then he prances down the sidewalk as if he's in control again.Our female is very good with it. You can tell she's not too happy about it, but walks very well now and I don't struggle with them barking ridiculously at bikes, dogs, SQUIRRELS!, etc.She was always running on her halter and now ~I~ WALK my dogs, they don't pull me.I didn't even watch the training DVD. My husband and I just put them on. The 1st eve was a bit difficult, but its been a few days and they are doing way better.I know by next week they will be fine. Jo is stubborn so it will be a few days but Jesse has adjusted. She's just happy to walk anytime. But now there's no pull, waaaay less barking and my whole left disabled side of my body says THANK YOU!Jmyers

If taking your dog for his/her daily constitutional is a trail, then a Halti may help. Any dog can be both boustious and naughty when spying other dogs on his/her walk. Not to mention, the bane of all dog owners lives, wild life, namely Squirrels, and other domestic pets, such as cats. The Halti allows you to control your dog by using using gentle pressure to better control your dogs head, and to curtail certain behaviours, such as pulling and barking, in a more gentle form of behaviour reinforcement, as a genuine Halti is cruelty free. The one issue I've found with all of the Halti's I've used over the years, is; though the material used is strong and long wearing, it does tend to stretch. Often, I've had to resort to stitching the band which goes around the back of the dogs head to shorten it, as once it stretches, it can slip off. Even though it has a safety strap that clicks onto your dogs coller, it renders the Halti's ability to help control your dogs behaviour null and void. I have, over a series of years never had one snap. Always, it has stretched, once the straps have been tightened as much as is allowed by design, stitching it is the best method I have found. It's important to remember, that like us, dog breeds are highly individual, so measuring your dogs headbefore purchasing this item is extremely important. Don't necessarily go by the manufacturers sizing. Often the same breed of dog, (as happens with many things) are individual, and often bigger or smaller than the standard stats of most breeds. This is my 5th Halti, and my 3rd manufacturer. There is little difference between brands, and it is often that my dog has grown or got older, that I've had to change the Halti before wearing it out. Don't be afraid to search through the many different manufacturers that sell these, as prices vary, however, be aware that buying from unregulated sellers may earn you a cheaper alternative, that isn't a genuine item. It is always safer to purchase a Halti from a reputable seller. Remember depending on the size of your pet, prices will vary. They tend to be numbered, a 1 will often fit a small breed with a 3 fitting a mid sized breed. Often this is translated into centre metres on the back of the packet. As with all products, what works for one dog, may not work for another, only trying it will tell.bevefors

It has not arrived yet but the site is misleading. It suggests you have a choice of many colours but when I wanted size2 I had a choice of red or black only! I looked at all the other sizes and none of them offered all the choices! So I ordered red as I don't want black. It was the cheapest I could find so as long as you don't want much choice worth looking at. I ordered because my halti which is very old finally snapped and I could not take my dog out without it. Presume it will be usual halti quality but will wait and seelindmargeriso0

This product takes time to introduce to a dog, please look online as to how to make this an easier adjustment. the instructions on the company's page are lacking. My 90lb pitbull walks well on this, but she took a lot of work and will still struggle. It will take me a long time to get her to walk in grass without wanting to rub her face or paw this off. You want to invest in some training treats and constantly get their attention to turn them around and treat them. sharp 'uh uh uh' and gently pull the leash up so they cannot drag their faces or paw at themselves. Recommending a quiet atmosphere where you have time to put it on and off their faces, eventually snap it, and short multiple walks to get them interested. they will learn to associate this as what they need to wear to walk eventually and the fighting will slow. The other thing, is i specifically wanted this item for the safety feature that will clip to collar. Nothing worse than a loose dog that just had something on its face it didn't want and its now running loose cause it doesn't want to wear that againJenibear

I bought the collar to match the harness and lead. If the harness had had a ring to attach an ID tag to it serves no real purpose. How much better would it have been to at least have had a ring on the collar to attach the lead too if the harness is not availablePeter

My dog absolutely loves it, before now he would never wear a collar and he hated them, this collar is padded and comfy for him, he even barks when we take it off of him now! Absolutely brilliantlollip6078

I purchased a large size based on the dogs snout measurement and it was too big so I ordered a medium and it's still too big and can slip off. My pup is still growing so I'll keep the medium and return the large if I can.PSPete

this would probably work fine on bigger dogs but on my little Papillon it's just torture because the rings don't hold any adjustments for her tiny snout so the front strap just rubs her eyes and makes her baulk. I think for small dogs they could make the snout loop with fixed adjustments so the size would hold and it would then work more like intended but as is it doesn't work without pull on the leash which you don't always havebill

This was exactly as described. I really like the quick release. Makes it much easier to put on and take off my dog. We were unable to walk our dog before this collar. He would pull to the point of choking himself out. We tried several collars and harnesses before going with the Prong collar. It took a couple of days to get him used to wearing the collar. I didn't think this would work on the 1st day. He pulled hard and it pinched him. He got scared and refused to move. We were patient worked with him slowly, 5 minutes at a time. He now walks like a champ. Loose leash stays close to me and no longer pulls at all. He is much happier with the walks as are we.LEONARD

I purchased this collar after ordering the same collar on Amazon only to be disappointed with a generic prong collar made in China (I've seen more than one supposed "Herm Sprenger" product have this problem on Amazon – that is, advertising the real thing and then shipping out something generic.) I am very happy that I ordered through 1800petsupplies, as I received an authentic Herm Sprenger prong collar. I started using this type of collar on my first German Shepherd and needed a second collar after getting him a brother. Walks with the two of them on prong collars are enjoyable because even though they both have "loose leash" training – they still need a little correction to be truly loose leash walkers. Highly recommend!Jessica

I used to be 100% against prong collars. I thought they looked like torture devices. I started working at a pet store and would NEVER recommend them until one day another employee who had been there over ten years EDUCATED me on their proper use. Just like anything, using them properly will render awesome results. I have a Great Dane and she was awful to take on walks so I bought a prong collar(over two years ago) one day to try it out and the results…INSTANTANEOUS. She was a completely different animal. I also have a border collie now and we bought one of these herm sprengers as a recommendation for his training. Works great when you use it right. You ONLY use it for short periods of time like walks. Once you're done leash walking it needs to come off. You NEVER leave it on them as their regular every day collar. That's how the irritation and the holes get there. Hope this was helpful! Like I said, if it will be used right, I highly recommend.ashleigh.f

Definitely helps ameliorate very strong pulling but dog not too happy. Puppy mostly tolerates it but on occasion rubs her head across ground – grass or tarmac – to try to get it off, with the result that's she's scratched her little face. I so hope she grows up to not need it but in the meantime, to coin a phrase, it's me or the dog. I have a horrible feeling I'm going to have to go to strength-training classes and go back to harness for walkiesflorabell47

I've got a 5 month old rescue pup who has never been on a lead before and used to pull like crazy, weaving all over the place which is incredibly frustrating even for the most patient of owners! So a dog trainer suggested I buy a gentle leader. Once i fitted it and my dog got used to having it on, I braved the dreaded walk and my word what a difference! No pulling, no weaving, just a nice calm walk to heel! Highly recommend this Gentle leader. Good value, good quality and makes for an easier stress free walk. Can't wait to carry on our lead training with it.tinyonejo

Our young labradoodle was dreadful at pulling on the lead with just a collar. With this there was an immediate difference, she's much easier to control. According to the instructions she should learn over time not to pull so we don't need this arrangement for ever, but we haven't seen that happen yet. She doesn't really like it, particularly the bit that hangs under her chin which seems to irritate her if left on when not using the lead – but for us humans it's great.pete-and-marg

Highly recommended. Much more comfortable for our Maltese/Shitzu to wear than the plastic E-Collar. Prevented our dog from reaching her front foot which had stitches. Could easily reach water bowl throughout the day.Kerrie

I bought it knowing it worked for a similar size dog but my puppy must be pretty limber as she was able to reach her stitches (she was desexed) and lick them. Product is okay but more information about sizing and dog type would be better. The size I bought was the correct size for her neck. A shame it wasn't as effective as the cone of shame, as the cushion is far comfortable than the cone.Amanda1224

4.5 stars! Collar works great! Used on my 3.7kg pup after her spay. She was in it all day and slept in it too, only having taken it off to brush her. Haven’t needed to reinflate at all these pass 2 weeks. It seemed like she enjoyed having it on which was a plus. The collar could’ve been a smidge bigger, as it seemed at some moments she almost reached her incision.Kirbypup

This is an expensive bark collar and it should last more than 9 months. We did not use it daily but after 9 months the bark collar stopped working and the warranty is only for 30 days.Jfan1962

Good unit. All you have to do to change the battery is be gadget person. Obviously it was assembled so disassemble it very carefully get the battery part number and order one. Or you could buy it with an extended Asurion plan on Amazon. I have always taking things apart ever since I was a child so if the batteries die on something other than an iPhone I take it apart and put a new one in always can be doneDavid
