Want to buy a head halter. How long does it take to condition them to it? Longer than a prong collar(he is on one currently he now walks on a regular harness around blocks with other dog loose leash prongs only for going into dog park etc) do people
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Personally I love the gentle leader muzzle harnesses. It provides owners great control of their dogs. It does take a while to get the dog used to it and they still want to rub their faces on people to get them off. They do that in the exam room with me. I would gradually increase the time you have it on in the house before going on walks and give him treats or peanut butter while he has it on. That way he associates it with good things. I do think so people think it is a muzzle but more and more people know what they are. Personally if it makes your life easier I wouldn't care what some people think. I think people think more highly of the gentle leader than the prong collar. As for walking on a loose leash, it may help with that but it really depends on the dog. Some will take advantage when they know the leash is loose. The best thing to not have a dog pull is to train them to "heel," which is easier to do with the Gentle leader. I hope this he

Is a muzzle or electric collar a good solution for a dog who lunges and snaps at people/other dogs?
A muzzle can be used for safety and to avoid liability. A better solution would be to schedule a consultation with a certified veterinary behaviorist and/or trainer to determine the triggers then work on gradually acclimating Waffles to people and other dogs so he doesn't respond or react negatively.

We adore our rescue dog and I love to take him on walks but although he’s great with people, he’s very unpredictable with other dogs and he’s extremely prey driven. So much that my 13 year old can’t cntril him if he sees a cat or bunny or something.
Hi there! I would recommend a Gentle Leader head halter - this is a great tool that makes it much easier for anyone, even a child, to walk a large dog and gives you better physical control to prevent lunging when he sees something exciting. Ideally, it would also be a good idea to work with a good reward-based trainer who can help you teach him better walking skills, so that eventually the head halter won't be needed.

Is a harness or collar better for my dog (1 year, 50lbs) not leash aggressive but very energetic. Slipped out of collar once,afraid hes going to again
From the perspective of him getting loose a harness could be more secure. I find, however, that this encourages them to pull more. I like the easy walk harnesses the best or even the gentle leaders. I would also recommend some obedience training as they can help you Willy off leash management

The problem is when he finds something when we outside (mushroom or dead bird for example) he became aggressive.. mostly somthing he wants to eat , but never did it towards his food or toys ... he never allows me to touch it or be so close he growls
It is best to get him a basket muzzle to wear like the one I have linked below. He cannot bite you or grab things while wearing it but he can still breathe, drink water and eat dog food. This is a temporary fix. You really need to find a professional dog trainer to work with to correct the behavior before he becomes too old. If you Google "dog training Saudi Arabia" many businesses come up. I suggest you research one in your area. https://www.bumas.us/dog-muzzle?TABINDEX=0
