•  The Gentle Leader Headcollar is NOT a muzzle.
• When fitted properly, your dog is free to open his mouth to eat, drink, pant, fetch, bark and even bite - except when you close his mouth by pulling on the leash.
• The Gentle Leader Headcollar features two soft nylon straps - the collar portion fits high at the top of the neck, and the nose loop fits loosely and comfortably across the base of the muzzle.
• Each strap has a distinct and important effect.

The Nose Loop.

• Dogs are naturally "pack" animals with a highly structured social order.
• One of the ways the "pack leader" will demonstrate his position is to gently but firmly grasp a subordinate's muzzle in his mouth.
• This is a non-aggressive, very clear signal regarding who's the boss.
• The Gentle Leader's nose loop encircles your dog's muzzle in this same manner, letting him know in his own language that you are his leader.
• Dogs feel more secure when they know who the leader is.

The Neck Strap.

• Have you noticed how puppies seem to melt in relaxation when their mother picks them up at the back of the neck?
• Gentle Leader applies pressure to the back of the neck rather than the front of the throat, working with your dog's natural relaxation instinct with an amazing calming effect.
• Also, dogs tend to pull against pressure so the gentle pressure at the back of the neck causes the dog to pull backward, not forward.
• This means an end to leash pulling forever.
