I have a Cairn that is aggressive to other dogs when he's on leash. Would this help?

It gives you more control over the dog so he pulls less when on the leash. I don't know if that will stop aggression. Check with a vet or trainer

The sporn didn't fit my dogs correctly so I donated them. I use the GEntle Leader. The only thing any head halter does is give you more control over the dog so in that regard, it will make it easy for you to control your Cairn but it wont make him any less aggressive. Hope that helps.

kdawg81-I don't know if you are still having problems with your dogs & neighbors dog but thought I would suggest what we did. Our neighbors dog won't come near our chain link fence but will stand off and bark. We can never see if their dog is out because of trees etc. so there have been times we have opened our door only to have our 2 go nuts up and down our fence line at this dog. A dog trainer recommended the shock type collar for our 2 dogs whenever they went to the fence acting like lunatics. Worked like a charm and quickly. Once and awhile we still put the collars on just to remind them but we are pleased. Yes, they will start to bark but as soon as we call their names they stop and come running. kdawg81-I don't know if you are still having problems with your dogs & neighbors dog but thought I would suggest what we did.

I never had that happen with my dog. He was always trying to drag me behind him when we went walking but this has stopped that completely for me.

I put the collar on my cairn terrier snugly. It works well. You may have to trim some hair from a dog with longer hair, but it is well worth the peace and quiet!

This coat helps anxiety, but I doubt it would do much to stop your Corgi's barking. There are other products sold for that, but well-timed calm reassurance from you may be a start. I appreciate my dog's "watchdog announcements" but am guessing yours is excessive. Good luck!

I don't know if it will, I am not familiar with the training methods. However ,I did get great results using it on my Mastiff mix . I have an older lab/pit mix and my younger mastiff can be quite aggressive with him. After a couple hits of the dog repeller followed by a stern " no" , she is leaving him alone. I would definitely give it a try, I was sceptical about purchasing it, but now I'm glad I did. I also use it on my very aggressive rescue cat. She's worse than a pitbull when she gets ticked off. The last time she tried to attack me, I hit the repeller and she backed off.

If u r very dillogent with the collar on a leash at first. Then continue to use properly this device will help! Keep in mind it's up to you to continue to condition with the collar until you can fully trust your dog. You will love this products! It has changed my life with my dog! Good luck!

Short answer is no... You really have to work to keep the tread going, even at a simple walking pace, so you dog will end up simply standing on it wondering why you tied his/her leash to this weird looking thing. You're better off getting a cheap powered unit for a few hundred more. Hope this helps!

It works great for that. I have a Bernese Mountain Dog, same issue. Doesn't seem to bother her at all.

Yes, it most likely will. However, I wouldn't just suddenly go on a walk with him using only the collar. Instead, use the collar and a retractable leash if you have one. Decide on a relatively fixed distance away from you that you will start enforcing as the collar's "virtual leash distance", if you will. Whenever your dog approaches the edge of that imaginary circle, give him a little jolt and lock the leash to keep him from going any farther away to reinforce that set distance. If you do this consistently he will learn this behavior to an extent that the physical leash will not be necessary so you can get away with just using the collar

Ted, I believe so, we use it for 2 cocker spaniels and it works well..we do not use leashes though and there is attachment only for one... hope that helps you... enjoy they LOVE IT!

I am not sure if this will help prevent attacking other dogs however, for our dog the gentle leader calms her down a lot, she does not pull when you walk her, she rarely ever barks with it on; the GL is like using accupressure for the dog. We love it and our dog does not mind it at all, it is part of the regular routine when we go out.

Yes, but probably 'just'. I have a Cairn Terrier and I think he doesn't like it because it's not very roomy for him.

I dont have a Cairn. I have rough coat Jack Russell Terriers and the 12 works great with those coats which tend to be quite thick.

I used it on my somewhat aggressive white GSD. I would say that it takes the edge off, but you probably some obedience training too.

The dogs can learn to discriminate who's collar is beeping because the beep is quite quiet unless it's right by their ears. That being said, the leash is NOT IDEAL for multi-dog walks. I do not recommend walking two simpleLeash dogs with one hand, because if one dog stops to pee and the other doesn't notice and continues walking, soon both collars will be beeping, which can cause undue harm to them if they don't react quickly enough. Walking two simpleLeash dogs with two seperate hands is much better because you can move your arms to give the dogs a little more time to react, accidental shocks occur less often. I believe that the dogs could get accustommed to always being on their toes and listening carefully and watching the other dog carefully, but that kind of walk is not great for the dogs. Two seperate walkers is best because if the dogs pull in opposite directions, there is no problem. Even then, your dogs may sometimes get tangled up and you'll have to scramble to untangle before they pull too hard. This is a worse situation when only one of the dogs is on the simpleLeash, because only one hears the warning beep and the other, oblivious, might continue to pull. If you frequently have multiple dogs on a walk, a remote shock collar might be better for you.

My dog always pulls and she has power. With this leash, she would stop and walk so gentle with the slightest of tension. She also loves other dogs and to jump and see what people are carrying. This prevented her pulling and from jumping as well. I say it is a great option for your situation.
