A gentle leader is a head collar. Dogs have alot of strength in their necks but not in their heads. The gentle leader goes across the dogs nose and back behind their ears, just like a horse's halter. With the gentle leader on, my 140 pound great dane cannot physically overpower me. It didn't take her long to realize that she didn't like having her head held tight when she acted up, so she doesn't do it anymore. At first your dog is going to hate it, and try everything to get it off, and then rub her face once you take it off. But eventually she will get used to it and I think it will work wonders for you. Good luck!
