What size do I need?

Use our Canny Collar sizing guide to find the perfect fit for your dog.

How do I fit and use my Canny Collar?

Correct fitting is essential for comfort, security and effective training. Follow our step-by-step Canny Collar fitting and walking instructions.

How does the Canny Collar work?

The Canny Collar uses a gentle pressure and release technique to train your dog not to pull. The behind-the-head design keeps your dog's head, neck, and body straight when they pull, preventing their head from twisting.

When your dog pulls, she feels mild, even pressure across the bridge of her nose. As soon as she stops pulling and the lead loosens, the pressure is released.

This helps your dog learn that walking calmly beside you on a loose lead is more comfortable. Praise or treats can be used to positively reinforce good walking behaviour.

Is the Canny Collar suitable for large dogs?

The Canny Collar is available in seven sizes for small to large dogs, with neck sizes up to 58cm. For dogs with a neck measurement over 58cm, including many giant breeds, choose the heavier-duty Canny Colossus. Measure your dog's neck before ordering to ensure you select the correct size.

Is the Canny Collar right for my dog?

The Canny Collar is designed for dogs that pull on the lead and is available in seven sizes for most breeds. It is particularly useful where you need greater control while teaching loose-lead walking.

Because a headcollar needs sufficient muzzle length to sit securely, it may not be suitable for very flat-faced breeds such as Pugs or French Bulldogs.

For dogs with a neck measurement over 58cm, choose the Canny Colossus.

How do the sizings work on the Canny Collar?

Since dogs, like humans, come in all shapes and sizes, it’s important to measure your dog's neck snugly to ensure you have the correct size Canny Collar. As your dog's neck can sometimes be hard to measure accurately (especially if there is a lot of fur), we have designed the Canny Collar so that each size overlaps with the sizes above and below, so there is some flexibility when choosing your size.

Once you have your collar fitted, it's advisable to test first in your garden or house to ensure it cannot come off over her head.

 

What if my dog is exactly between two sizes?

If your dog is exactly borderline between two sizes, we generally recommend getting the smaller size of the two options. If you have a puppy however, it may be worth waiting a month or so and buying the larger size.

Love it

I had never heard about this product until I ran into another service dog who recommended I get it. Love that it attaches at the back of the head so the dog won’t get whiplash if stopped suddenly. Also love that it’s so easy to switch between head halter and normal collar. I actually did a video on my dogs page because I was so glad I came across it, and since I’d never heard about it, I wanted to share it with other people. Video with this collar can be found here, and there’s other videos on the page of just general training and general days where she’s wearing it. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1B7CjKwRzM/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Thank you for your review Jasmine. It's alawys great to hear that a service dog and handler are having great success with our collar. The picture is just gorgeous too!

Kiera (Melbourne, VIC, AU)
Game changer

This collar has been a game changer with my five month old great dane pup. Had started her with a correction collar which left her neck red due to her pulling against it and I struggled to keep her under control when walking. A friend suggested I try her dogs canny collar as it had worked for them. It made a huge difference. Two weeks later my pup is walking beautifully, can even walk her to a local cafe now and she stays right beside me.

Thank you for your great review and the gorgeous photo of your not so little pup Kiera! She looks so regal. All the best with you further training and we are thrilled that our collar could help.

Awesome Canny Collar

My five-month-old Malinois puppy, Alé, used to pull me down the street; it took all the enjoyment out of our walks for me, and likely for her too. I tried everything: training and treating, a collar, two different harnesses and a gentle walker (the latter donated by a couple of guys at the local cafe who had witnessed my misery; Alé chewed through it within a day). I stumbled on the Canny Collar on one of my internet searches. I read the testimonials—all of them and watched a couple of videos. I ordered, expecting to be disappointed. In our first trial, I put it on incorrectly, and Alé managed to slip out of the noseband (she hated it)—remember to pull the noseband through the plastic yellow guider. The second trial, out for a walk, noseband properly in place, was nothing short of remarkable. In next to no time, I had Alé trotting along beside me (behaviour reinforced with copious treats). She still hates the noseband and tries to scuff it on walls and push it off with her paws if the tension slackens (rolling around in the park). But the Canny Collar has transformed our walks from a chore into a pleasure. For that, we're both grateful.

What an amazing review Duncan and thank you for the gorgeous pictures. They are adorable!
I could feel your frustration through your review and how hard you have tried to solve your walking problems with Alé. Your puppy is very lucky to have such a diligent owner and we are thrilled that our product has given you the control that you so desperately needed. Some dogs do struggle with the nose strap but with perseverance they do eventually get used to it. Hopefully you can both look forward to your walks for many years to come. Thank you for taking the time to review the Canny Collar.

Head strong Chocolate Labrador

Archie at ten months was very strong and would ignore me when he was trying to get to another dog or person. He knows basic commands. The Canny Collar has given me full control when he sees a distraction, he did try to get it off to start with by throwing himself down trying to hook it off his nose but did not succeed.

Hi Jo, thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad the Canny Collar is helping you manage Archie’s distractions. Keep up the great training, and feel free to reach out if you need any further tips. All the best!

Margaret

I bought this for my 7 year old Great Dane who walks beautifully on a leash until she sees certain things that make her excited or reactive. Unfotunately, this was little more than a flat collar on her and I had to revert back to my previous nose halter part way through our first walk as she just pulled through. Could be a great option for a younger dog who is not as strong. I found there was minimal pulll on the nose and most of it was from under the chin (yellow buckle) which really just put pressure on her throat.

It works

This is our 2nd dog that we've used the Canny collar and we started at 3 months and he is walking effortlessly at 11 months using 1 finger on the lead. My one word of advice is to be patient and you'll be rewarded with a very well behaved and calm dog and owner.

Thank you for your great review David and the essential reminder that persistence and patience is key for any dog to progress even with great tools. All the best with your puppy!

The best collar found so far

The canny collar is the best tool I have found so far to help me control my Staffy on our walks. It still let her open her wide mouth, were other brands and design don't.
It allows her to pull harder than the one that have the control on the side of the face but I understand that this is a training tool. I would have liked a bit more padding, maybe, for the lace that goes around the snout but overall this is a genius design and good quality product. Congratulations and Thank you.

That is so great to hear Celine and thank you for your feedback. We have to walk a fine line with how much padding we use to accommodate the many breeds that we cater to but we always pass your feedback on. We are thrilled that you are so happy with the collar. All the best with your Staffy!

This collar is great, even the dog likes it...

However, something to stop the two ends with the D's that connects to the lead from going over the dogs head if the dog stops suddenly....

Working thus far, could use a press in clip instead of a buckle.

Working well so far. Could use a clip in buckle instead of a belt buckle.

Thank you Mike we will take your suggestion into consideration. It's great to hear that you are happy with our products. All the best with your dog!

Worked really well

Enjoy more relaxed walks with the Canny Collar

The Canny Collar is a comfortable no-pull dog headcollar designed to help train dogs that pull on the lead. Its patented behind-the-head design gives you greater control without pulling your dog's head to one side, helping you teach calm, loose-lead walking using a gentle pressure-and-release technique.


Helps train your dog to stop pulling

When your dog pulls, gentle pressure is applied across the bridge of the nose. As soon as your dog stops pulling and the lead loosens, the pressure is released. This helps your dog learn that walking calmly beside you on a loose lead is more comfortable.

Praise or treats can be used to positively reinforce good walking behaviour. The Canny Collar is a training aid rather than a quick fix, helping you develop better walking habits together.


Behind-the-head design for greater control

Unlike many headcollars where the lead attaches beneath the chin, the Canny Collar attaches behind your dog's head. This applies lead pressure straight back rather than pulling the head sideways.

The design also helps prevent the noseband riding up towards your dog's eyes and makes it much more difficult for your dog to get a paw over the lead and pull the noseband off.


Comfortable for your dog

The Canny Collar has a generously padded collar and a soft, single noseband that self-adjusts to the shape of your dog's muzzle.

With the lead loose, your dog can open their mouth freely to breathe, pant and drink. There are no complicated straps around the face and the collar fastens around the neck like a conventional dog collar.


Easy to fit and use

Simply fasten the collar around your dog's neck, attach your lead to both D-rings and place the noseband over the muzzle.

The Canny Collar is available in seven sizes for neck measurements from 23–58cm, with four colours to choose from. For dogs with a neck measurement over 58cm, the heavier-duty Canny Colossus is available for giant breeds.


From headcollar to regular collar

The removable noseband makes it easy to transition your dog towards walking on a conventional collar and lead as their loose-lead walking improves.

For off-lead exercise, remove the noseband from your dog's muzzle and secure it beneath the chin using the supplied carabiners. This allows the Canny Collar to remain comfortably in place while your dog is off lead.

 

The Canny Collar is designed to be worn when walking, training and when your dog is let off lead temporarily. It is not a substitute for your dog’s regular collar. Never attach your lead to the carabiners.


SPECIAL OFFER: Get 20% discount off a Canny Lead!

When you add a matching Canny Lead or Canny Connect Lead to your Canny Collar order, you will receive an automatic 20% discount off your lead.
