Canny Collar 13.95 Enjoy walking your dog My "canny" collar arrived today. I am very pleased with it. I have a 65# male English Shepherd (border collie/farm collie mix). He is a medium sized dog with a very, very BIG engine.
I have tried every imaginable US-made collar on him because he is difficult to control when he meets another male dog. I have tried both "Halti" & Gentle Leader, the leading brands here. Both fasten under the chin. While each helped to curb pulling, but both were made of very flimsy nylon straps and had....

Canny Collar 13.95 Enjoy walking your dog I don't usually do the review thing either, but I ahve to with this, what a fantastic product. I have two German Shepherds Jack and Yannie, Jack is very strong and I worry when my husband isn't around to take him out with me. So I got a collar for both dogs (only fair) and we tried them out last night, "brilliant" doesn't even come close, they are fantastic. Jack walked by my side and was just so good, Yannie wasn't keen on the nose bit but by the end of the walk she was okay. We tried them again this morning and....

Canny Collar 13.95 Enjoy walking your dog We have a Springer Spaniel, an 8 month old live wire. Nothing we had tried stopped him pulling. Looking for any help at all, I came across your web site, read customers feedback, especially one referring to a Springer. I decided that for the collar at a reasonable price I'd take a chance. The collar arrived within two days and my wife took him for a walk. She arrived back elated!. After a few initial sit downs and pawing at the strap, he stopped PULLING. Now she can enjoy taking him for a walk. THANK YOU. ....

Home Featured The Canny Collar Fitting Guide
Fitting the Canny Collar - Kind, safe, effective
Using the Canny Collar to control your dog means there is no sideways jerking on his neck or riding up into his eyes as the lead connects behind his head, rather than underneath his chin. Choking and panting will not occur with the Canny Collar as pressure is only felt around the nose and mouth. Because the lead is connected behind the head, the few dogs that do not become accustomed to it quickly will find it impossible to paw the Canny Collar off.
Gentle pressure only is required when using the Canny Collar. There is no need for harsh jerking or pulling.
Fitting Instruction |
Picture |
| 1) Fasten the Canny Collar around your dog’s neck, ensuring the buckle is positioned just behind the ears at the back of his neck. Fold any excess collar and tuck it under the buckle. The Canny Collar should fit higher up than a conventional collar, as shown. |
 |
| 2) A snug fit is essential to ensure it cannot come off your dog whilst walking. Test the Canny Collar by trying to pull it off your dog’s head – if fitted correctly, this should not be possible. |
 |
| 3) Pull each end of the thin slip line behind your dog’s head and attach your lead to both ‘D’ rings at each end. |
 |
| 4) Pull the slip line through the small black or yellow plastic guider at the front of the Canny Collar and place over your dog’s snout. With some breeds, it may be easier to do this before attaching the lead. Take care not to twist the slip line before placing it over your dog's snout. |
 |
| 5) Ensure you leave the plastic guider under your dog’s chin. |
 |
| 6) Now you’re ready for your walk with the Canny Collar. |
 |
| 7) When walking, your lead should be kept short but loose so you can control your dog quickly and easily. An extendable lead is not recommended for use with the Canny Collar as the slip lead may not remain in place. |
 |
| 8) When your dog pulls on the lead, apply gentle pressure by tightening the lead. Instant release of the pressure occurs when he stops pulling. This pressure and release system is how your dog trains himself to stop pulling. Within a short time, he will be walking happily by your side on a loose lead. |
 |
| 9) Some dogs may resist the first time you put the slip line over their face and try to paw it off. You must continue to walk and lift his head by raising your lead. |
 |
| 10) Instantly release the pressure by lowering your lead when he stops resisting. Once the initial resistance has stopped, release all pressure. Keep walking while giving him vocal praise, then stop and praise him lavishly. |
 |
| 11) When letting your dog off lead, the Canny Collar can be left on him by removing the slip line from his snout and pulling it out fully. Cross the slip line behind his head and drop it either side of his head. |
 |
| 12) Bring the D rings together to meet underneath his chin and use one or two of the optional carabiner clips to secure the D rings together. |
