Easily train your dog to walk without pulling

The Canny Collar is the best collar to help train dogs not to pull on leash, transforming even the worst pullers into happy, well-behaved pets. Voted ‘Best New Product’ by the UK pet industry when first launched, the Canny Collar is simple to fit, easy to use, kind, safe, comfortable and effective.

Walking with a dog that pulls on leash is no fun!

It can also be stressful, frustrating, embarrassing and risk injury to you both if you are pulled over. You have a dog because you want to walk her, not because you want to suffer on your dog walks. A Canny Collar can help you to enjoy walking your dog!

Unique design

Our unique, patented ‘behind-the-head’ design means the Canny Collar does not ride up into your dog’s eyes nor yank her head to one side, both of which will cause distress, discomfort and which could damage the neck.

Trains your dog to walk on a regular collar

Can be used in both ‘training collar mode’ and ‘regular collar mode’ by easily dropping the slip line (nose band) off your dog's nose as needed. This way, you can train your dog to eventually walk on a regular collar and leash.

A comfortable fit

The slip line over your dog’s nose is soft, strong and adjusts easily to fit the shape of your dog’s face. As it is only one light piece of webbing, your dog is able to breathe easily, pant and even carry a ball or toy in her mouth. Because of this, it will never be confused with a muzzle when meeting other dog owners. The collar is made from high quality, padded, cushioned webbing which is both strong and comfortable. When your dog is happy she will be much more receptive to training.

Total control

Your leash attaches to the D rings on the slip line. This works independently of the collar, giving you a direct connection to your dog’s ‘steering’. The slip line (nose band) eliminates pulling and lungeing by applying gentle pressure when your dog pulls and immediately releasing the pressure as your dog stops. The collar part stays in a fixed position, just like your dog’s regular collar.

Safe and Secure

Because the Canny Collar fastens behind the head and not under the chin, your dog cannot lift her paw over her leash and pull the collar off her head. Even if she manages to get a claw into the slip line and pull it off her nose, your leash is still secured to the D rings and so she cannot escape. The nickel-plated steel buckle provides added reassurance and ensures a secure fastening that will never snap free. This means your dog is always safe, avoiding any potential danger for both of you.

Superior quality workmanship and top value

Your dog deserves the very best! The top quality padded collar, soft yet strong generous slip line over the nose and nickel-plated steel buckle and fittings mean the Canny Collar is the very best value for money:

Combines safety, comfort, superior quality materials, fittings and workmanship
Provides complete but gentle control
Does not ride into eyes
Does not yank your dog’s head to one side - recommended by chiropractors
Recommended by dog trainers, Guide Dogs, training schools, rescue organizations and veterinarians worldwide
Wipeable and washable material is easy to keep clean
If you are embarrassed by your pulling dog, dread taking your dog for a walk and have tried everything else to stop your dog pulling, then the Canny Collar is the answer. Available in the following vibrant colors: black, red, blue and purple.

Girl Scouts’ First Dog Cookie…

…made with one of the worst feed-grade ingredients.

The Girl Scouts have just announced that the organization will begin selling a dog cookie called “Patch Pals.”
The company’s press release describes them as “soft-baked, blueberry muffin-flavored dog cookies” that celebrate the bond between people and their pups.
Sounds cute.
Sounds wholesome.
But there is something the Girl Scouts’ press release did not tell you.
The first ingredient in this dog cookie — meaning the ingredient present in the largest amount by pre-cooked weight — is a waste-food ingredient called: "Dried Bakery Product.”

What is Dried Bakery Product?

The legal definition is:

“A mixture of bread, cookies, cake, crackers, flours, and doughs which have been mechanically separated from non-edible material, artificially dried and ground.”

Read that again.

Mechanically separated from non-edible material.

That “non-edible material” is the packaging.
Dried Bakery Product is essentially made by taking bakery products that have been discarded, mechanically separating them from their packaging, drying them and grinding them up.

And there is something else you need to know.

The legal definition does not prohibit mold-covered raw materials.

There is no requirement that the bread, cookies, cakes, crackers, flours or doughs be fresh.

Imagine a loaf of bread sitting around for weeks past its expiration date.

Imagine discarded bakery products.

Imagine what gets thrown into the waste stream at grocery stores and food manufacturers.

Now imagine that material being processed and put into a cookie for your dog.

This is not what we want our dogs eating.

Dried Bakery Product is rarely used in pet foods.

It is, however, a common livestock feed ingredient. And it is cheap.... Very cheap.

That is the point.

There is a reason this ingredient exists.
It allows discarded bakery products to be turned into an inexpensive feed ingredient instead of simply being thrown away.
Here is a link to a recent video from a company that makes the equipment used to mechanically separate expired bread, cookies, cakes, crackers, flours and doughs from their packaging. Watch it.

Then ask yourself:

Is this what you want going into your dog’s food?

I don't.

We don't want to feed our dogs garbage.

Our dogs aren't garbage disposals.

They aren't livestock.

They depend on us to make the decisions about what they eat.

And when an organization like the Girl Scouts introduces its first dog cookie, dog owners should be able to expect ingredients that are appropriate for dogs — not a cheap, feed-grade waste ingredient made from discarded bakery products.

The problem isn't just that Dried Bakery Product is the first ingredient. The problem is that the Girl Scouts are marketing this as a special dog cookie while saying virtually nothing about what this ingredient actually is.

Dog owners deserve to know.

And the people responsible for developing this product should have known.

We have to assume the decision-makers at Girl Scouts USA either did not investigate the ingredients in their new dog cookie or simply didn't ask the most basic question:

What is Dried Bakery Product?

But they should have... Before putting this ingredient first on a dog cookie ingredient list, they should have asked a much more important question:

Would we feed this to our own dogs?

I know my answer. NO!

Our dogs deserve better than recycled grocery garbage.

Most dog chew toys are made from nylon, plastics, and synthetic chemicals that break down while your dog chews.

BetterBone is different. Made from simple plant-based ingredients like cellulose and vegetable extracts, it was designed to be a safer, cleaner alternative to traditional chew toys.

Once you read the label on your dog’s old bone, you may never give it back.
