We introduced Wally to the Gentle Leader/Halti during his most recent (and definitely NOT last!) obedience class. The instructor helped us get him accustomed to it, and emphasized we should never let him try to rub it off, or scrap at it, because they had seen instances where dogs had injured their eyes or scratched their faces trying to get it off. With lots of treats, Wally seems resigned to it---good thing too! He pulls so much with the harness (even the Gentle Leader one) that you can hardly walk with him. The halti gives much better control.
Good for Peaches! I always thought the tunnel looked like great fun too!
