I have one called a gentle leader I use on my great dane. It slides over the muzzle and rides high on her neck with an under the neck leash attachment. She can pant, drink, bark but she does not pull and tug. In fact, when I first put it on her and she would pull it tight, she stopped, looked...

Gentle Leader I posted wrong the first time so am repeating myself. I have a great dane I got when she was 10 mo's old and had been penned for a while. She was very aware she weighed as much as me and used it. Then I got something called the gentle leader. It fits high on the neck and...

I have a great dane who used to forget her place. Then I got something called a gentle leader. They make them in all sizes. I cannot say enough good things about this collar. They come in all sizes. They fit so that when the dog pulls on the collar, it tugs their head downward and back...

Hey, I have had this now 11 month old dane female for about a month. She was kind of a rescue. Family with small child. Wife went back to work. Dane in small pen. Fortunately they had enough sense to know that was no life for this lovely dog. So she is with me now. Here is my question...

Thanks for the advice. We are all getting along better now! What a goof a dane is.....

Thanks! 6 days together and we are all getting along much better! After reading around, I feed them in random order, although Keira is often last since she is the most trouble. I hold the food bowl over my head (she is a great dane and 100lbs at 10 mos) and ask her to sit once. When she...
