The Gentle Leader® Calming Cap is a new behavior management aid that is
designed to lessen a dog's anxiety or aggression in high-stress
situations. It was designed by Trish King, CPDT CDBC and director of
Behavior & Training at the Marin Humane Society, in collaboration with
Lisa Moore, CPDT.
The Cap was developed originally to ease hyperactivity in a dog that
became agitated while traveling in a car. Since then, pet owners and
professionals across the pet industry have used the Cap to quiet and
calm anxious or excitable dogs.

How It Works
The Calming Cap reduces the visual stimulus that makes a dog
agitated by filtering his vision. It is not a blindfold. The single-panel sheer fabric window
makes the dog's vision indistinct, while allowing the dog to easily
navigate his surroundings.
Things like people, tables, and doorways are still visible while smaller things
like nail clippers and a vet's needles are obscured. Great for dog
introductions, car rides, vet visits and nail clipping sessions. |
Quality
Features
 Single-panel sheer fabric window
offers enough vision to allow dog
to confidently navigate surroundings while reducing the provoking
stimulus.
Soft fabric and elastic fit
provides maximum comfort.
The cap connects to the dog's
collar with two Velcro straps and the
elastic ring that surrounds the muzzle is not
restrictive, making it
easy to put on and take off. |
The Gentle Leader Calming Cap is designed to
help reduce your dog's anxiety level in stressful situations. However, sometimes the
situation may require professional support. We recommend talking to your
veterinarian, behaviorist or a qualified trainer who may provide additional
assistance in reducing your dog's anxious behavior. Please note that the Calming
Cap will not be effective on all dogs.
