Canny Collar

Which Canny Collar size? Measure around your dog's neck just behind the ears and choose the size for that measurement: sizes 1 to 7 cover 23 to 58 cm (full chart below). If your dog is exactly between sizes, the manufacturer recommends the smaller size.

A padded headcollar from The Canny Company. The lead clips on behind your dog's head, not under the chin.

• Brand: The Canny Company (Australia), Black Rock, Victoria. Genuine Canny product.
• How it works (manufacturer's description): the collar fastens around the neck like a regular collar, and a soft single noseband sits over the muzzle. With the lead loose, your dog can open their mouth to pant and drink.
• Fitting: fasten the collar, clip your lead to both D-rings, then place the noseband over the muzzle.
• Removable noseband: for off-lead time, take the noseband off the muzzle and clip it under the chin with the supplied carabiners.
• Sizes (manufacturer's size guide, neck measured just behind the ears): Size 1: 23–28 cm · Size 2: 28–33 cm · Size 3: 33–38 cm · Size 4: 38–43 cm · Size 5: 43–48 cm · Size 6: 48–53 cm · Size 7: 53–58 cm. The Canny Collar sits higher and more snugly than a regular collar; if your dog is exactly between sizes, the manufacturer recommends the smaller size.
• Colours: black, red, blue or purple.
• Delivery: sent directly by the brand, usually dispatched the same or next business day. Delivery usually takes 2–8 business days after dispatch (WA, NT, TAS and regional areas can take longer). The delivery cost is shown at checkout, before you pay. Free delivery on Canny orders of A$49 or more.
• Returns: change-of-mind returns within 14 days of delivery if unused and in original packaging (see our Refund Policy). This doesn't affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Important (manufacturer's guidance): use the Canny Collar for walks and training only, not as your dog's everyday collar. Never attach the lead to the carabiners.

Before you choose: if your dog pulls, the RSPCA suggests trying loose-lead training and a front-attach harness first. A head collar suits some dogs after that; fit it exactly as the maker describes. Our note Fit comes before colour has more.
