Gentle Leaders can work well, depending on the dog. For most dogs, they work wonders when walking, and the dog quickly learns not to pull. I used one for my old Basset Hound Charlie and it was a miracle worker. He heeled perfectly and never pulled on the leash, but there was one problem. Charlie seemed very depressed when he had the Gentle Leader on. He hated it and was always upset. I read in The Whole Dog Journal that sometimes these head collars can cause depression in some dogs. |
