As you can see from this photo, Evie is back to wearing her Gentle Leader. We have tried the Gentle Leader & the Prong Collar because a)She pulls while walking b)she still jumps at bikers & runners c)doesn't love every dog she sees on the street & wants to pull towards them. We were using the prong for awhile and then she was really great without it.However, it seems she starts to go back to her old ways after awhile. I started using this harness on her and it is going great. Our walks are much more calm & pleasant. I think even Evie feels a little better. Sometimes she doesn't even look at bikers/runners/other dogs.
And, if she's happy & I'm happy then were all happy! She is also able to meet more dogs with this on because she cannot really jump on them. The GL is like what horses wear so if she jumps, her head just turns and she can't really go anywhere.
Evie is 5 and people told me dogs calm down around that age but I'm seeing no sign of it!! Oh well, we love the May and this is just one more way to keep her safe & have a more pleasant time outside(for both of us!)
