Re: In-Home use of a Gentle Leader head collar w/o leash

Krissy hasn't bitten me, thankfully. She's also not drawn blood. She bit a friend when he came to my home to help with my computer. She was fine, social even, until my friend moved to get a tool, at which point she bit. On another bite happened when a family member entered my home to get something f...
