Canny Collar
Purchased on recommendation. My seven month old 30kg large puppy had become dangerous to walk as she would lunge and pull. I was fearful of being pulled over and badly hurt. Instantly the Canny collar has removed these puppy behaviours. It is the training aid to force the habit of walking without pulling and then I hope to abandon it for a normal collar. It is an amazing tool.

Thank you so much Elizabeth for taking the time to leave such a great review. 😊 We're delighted that you have got such a great and immediate result with your puppy. 🙌 Walking a large dog with a fear of being pulled over is no fun at all but it sounds like you are well on the way to training her to walk well on a regular collar and lead. Good luck with your training. 🐾 🐾
Prompt delivery
Prompt delivery. Nice packaging. Collar was brilliant at stopping the pulling.

Amazing
I used a Canny collar a few years ago for a neighbour's dog. Decided to try one again for our rescue dog who was very strong on a lead. It is amazing how quickly she calmed down. Thank you.

Stop pulling instantly. 10 out 10 from us
I have a 5 month lab pup, well he pulled like a train, after randomly stopping a women in the street after seeing how great her lab was walking, asked what lead and collar she was using and she highly recommended this company, so I ordered the collar and lead and have never looked back, after 15 mins of putting on and walking he is walking like a dream. I couldn't recommended enough. Also customer service are great and very helpful, because my lab was between sizes I ordered the smaller size but he has a big fat head and after explaining this and explained how tight it was on him, they recommended a return for a bigger size. All effortless.

CANNY COLLAR - GAME CHANGER!
The Canny Collar has literally changed my life. Walks used to be a real struggle with constant pulling, but now they’re calm and enjoyable. It’s easy to put on, comfortable for my dog, and gives me gentle but effective control. I honestly can’t believe the difference it’s made — I’d recommend it to anyone dealing with a pulling dog!

What a fantastic product
What a fantastic product! Brought this for our 4 year old Springer as she was really awful at puling on the lead. I used this ONCE and she was so much easier to walk!
So pleased!

Hi Gillian, thank you for your kind review. I have emailed you directly about the size.
Our very excitable pup is learning
Our very excitable pup is learning to walk to heel and greet other dogs without jumping on them. She previously spent a lot of the walk trying to remove her separate nose ‘harness’ but the nose strap on the canny collar does not seem to bother her as much.

A brilliant invention
A brilliant invention, my dogs previous head collar would come off completely if he got it off his nose. This design means that if he gets it off the lead is still attached to the collar, no need to have 2 leads any more! I have a German Shepherd who previously pulled like a train and now walking him is more pleasurable

We ordered the collar and lead for our…Australian Labradoodle
We ordered the collar and lead for our year old Australian Labradoodle who we rehomed 12 weeks ago . He had never been walked on a lead with previous owners , so pulled a lot on normal collar . We tried him yesterday on Cannico collar and within an hour he was walking by our side no pulling and only occasional attempt to try to get it off .now we can all enjoy our walks together.

Delivered promptly
Delivered promptly. The Canny collar does work, but despite following your instructions, they can come off of two of the three dogs. However I am pleased with the purchases. Other similar halters have been too bulky and the dogs not so comfortable wearing them

Thank you Jackie for taking the time to leave a review on the Canny Collar. 😊 It does require a slightly different technique to other headcollars and you will find a solution to this issue by taking a look at our Help & FAQ page here: https://www.cannyco.co.uk/pages/faq
It’s the third one we have bought.

Fantastic for our 9 month old retriever. Makes walks enjoyable while we are training her.
We also bought them for our last 2 retrievers.
Certainly recommend having a canny collar for any dog.

Good quality & they work
Good quality & they work! Finally have control of my Shepherd! I have about 10 different other collars and harnesses and a Halti, none of them worked. To the extent I couldn't walk Blue, he even caused a prolapsed disk! Now with the CannyCollar i can finally walk him with confidence! Got another for my 7 month old Collie who pulled like mad, with the new collar she is amazing to walk. Thank you!!
