Gentle Leader® No-Pull Headcollar, Red

All About It

Discover the power of stress-free walks and harmonious companionship with the Gentle Leader® No-Pull Headcollar in striking Red. If your dog is an enthusiastic puller, this headcollar is your gateway to enjoyable strolls while teaching impeccable leash manners. Embrace the balance of control and comfort, allowing your furry friend to move, play, and explore with newfound ease.

If your dog lunges and jumps when he sees squirrels (and sniffs other dogs), the Gentle Leader® Headcollar is the perfect solution for teaching better leash manners. Use this training tool for your most determined puller while still allowing him full range of motion to bark, eat, drink and play fetch.

The Gentle Leader® Headcollar loops around your dog’s nose instead of his neck or shoulders like other harnesses. This means when your dog pulls, the headcollar gently moves his head toward you so he can refocus his attention on you and away from the tempting squirrels and distracting smells.

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 vet visits or dog park play dates.

This headcollar is vet recommended, trainer designed and dog parent trusted. If you accidentally purchase the wrong size, or if your dog mistakes his headcollar for a chew toy, our Customer Care experts are happy to assist with replacements or resizing. Your pet deserves the best. Trust PetSafe® to help keep your pet healthy, safe and happy.

How to Use It

How Does a Gentle Leader Work?

The Gentle Leader® Headcollar employs a gentle yet effective technique to enhance leash manners. When your dog pulls, the headcollar applies gentle pressure to the nose, guiding the head toward you. This redirection disrupts the pulling instinct, enabling you to regain control and establish a strong connection.

Using the Gentle Leader

• Use the Gentle Leader® Headcollar during walks for optimal results. However, it's not recommended for jogging, running, bike attachments, or couplers.
• Avoid jerking or yanking the leash connected to the headcollar.
• Patiently introduce your dog to the headcollar using treats and praise. Allow playtime or meals with the headcollar to aid acclimation.
