Head Collars
Head Collars for Swissies: It is quite alarming to hear that outside our breed club, Swissy owners are being recommended totally the wrong type of Head Collar. As we know the Swissy is a natural puller and within our club we advise and recommend to our puppy owners and adult owners only one type of Head collar. This is the Dogmatic available in a wide range of colours, fabric or leather. The Eye Specialist confirms this also because he is fed up of seeing so many eye injuries because of other incorrect types. We have always recommended the Dogmatic head collars, www.dogmatic.org.uk is their website. You have to measure the muzzle and the neck to get the correct size and using the size guide on the site you can get the correct head collar to fit your Swissy. Pups will need a few before they finally have the one that stays with them and it's instant relief from sore arms etc and they learn quickly to accept it and they walk right by your left side. I can walk 2-3 Swissies and a Rottie who does not need a head collar all under control and walking nicely.
