Do you walk your dog or does your dog walk you?
The Canny Collar is a revolutionary dog training device designed to stop your dog from pulling on the lead and help with your dog's training. Unlike a head device, the Canny Collar is made up of a simple, conventional collar with a slip line that fits over the nose of your dog.
The Canny Collar is designed to allow the lead to fasten behind your dog's head. The innovative design is ideal for dog walking.
Dog walking is easy
The Canny Collar works by a simple 'pressure and release' system to stop your dog from pulling. The lead is attached to a slip line behind your dog's which also fits over his snout.
The Canny Collar is designed so that when your dog is pulling on the lead, gentle pressure is applied to the bridge of his snout. As soon as he learns to stop pulling, the pressure is released. This method of dog training means that your dog quickly realises that by walking at your side and not pulling on the lead, both of you can enjoy your walk without either one of you choking or panting!
Dog training has never been easier! It's unique design means the single slip line over your dog's nose looks unobtrusive and kinder to your dog. It can be used like a 'dog training lead' by alternately flicking the slip line on and off your dog's nose, eventually training him to walk on a conventional flat collar. Common positive reinforcement dog training methods such as food based reward training can be combined with it's use. It can also be left on your dog when he is let off lead by using the optional carabiner clips.
It is made from the highest quality materials, by skilled craftsmen, which means its range of sizes ensures that there is one just the right size for your dog. Dog behaviour problems on lead are a thing of the past. Make your dog training easy and give yourself complete control over who takes who for a walk!

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. |
