The Gentle Leader® Calming Cap^TM


Discontinued by Manufacturer - Limited Sizes

Do you have a hard time cutting your dog's nails? The Calming Cap can help. We weren't sure about the Calming Cap until we tried it with our dogs. Wow, what a difference! It's easy to put on too.

The Gentle Leader Calming Cap lessens a dog's anxiety and/or aggression in high-stress situations. The Calming Cap was originally developed to ease hyperactivity in a dog that became agitated while traveling in a car. It works by reducing visual stimulus but not eliminating it completely. It is not a blindfold! The single-panel sheer fabric window makes the dog's vision indistinct while allowing the dog to navigate his surroundings if need be. 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. The cap connects to the dog's collar with Velcro straps and the elastic ring that surrounds the muzzle is not restrictive, making it easy to put on and take off.
