Description
One piece from the headcollar to the end of the lead, a Gencon all-in-one headcollar creates a gentle walking experience for both pet and owner. When your dog pulls, both loops tighten, lightly restricting the whole head so the dog backs off from the restriction.
This anti pull dog headcollar is designed to help stop dogs pulling on the lead safely and effectively.
Only gentle pressure is needed, and there is no need to jerk. This greatly decreases the likelihood of your Dog pulling and helps improve their behaviour when on the lead.
Why use an all-in-one dog headcollar?
A figure 8 collar helps to prevent dogs from pulling forcefully when on the lead, creating a peaceful walking experience. An all-in-one design can also last significantly longer than regular dog leads, with no clips or buckles to break between the collar and lead.
Quality Dog Head Leads Made in Britain
The Gencon all-in-one headcollars were designed with the help of dog trainers and pet psychologists, creating a safe, comfortable headcollar here in the UK. Our use of high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship paired with innovative technology have ensured that Gencon products have received a UK patent.
This makes it an effective no pull training lead for strong dogs that pull on walks.
Finding the best headcollar for your dog
Gencon leads and headcollars have been designed as a one-size fits all due to their adjustable design. Fit your All-in-one collar on any size or breed of dog by using one loop over your pet’s snout, and the other around their neck. Pull gently to make sure the fit is snug against your dog.
Suitable for dogs over 6 months old. View the Gencon All-in-one head collar in action here.
Using a Figure 8 Dog Headcollar
When training your dog, they may not immediately take to the all-in-one design, especially if they have not experienced a headcollar previously. If your dog becomes reluctant whilst wearing the Gencon All-in-one check out some tips and tricks from dog trainers and Gencon experts that will help you get your pup used to a figure 8 collar.

I was recommended one of these by a dog trainer for my crazy staffy and it’s been amazing! Such a game changer that I even bought one for my rottweiler puppy and they’ve since been a dream to walk. We went to a dogfest and were recommending gencon all day to people!

Delighted with the Gencon all-in-one! Such an uncomplicated and kind way to help control an excitable powerful dog.

Coffee and cream all in one head collar. This has revolutionised our dog walks.
Easy to put on and comfy for the dog to wear. I had a serial puller despite lots of training ( Sprocker Spaniel) ! Within minutes of putting this on and setting off on a walk it was like having a different dog. It has helped with loose lead walking when not being used as well. A brilliant piece of equipment and I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest one to others if needed.

Gencon harness.
I love this harness, it is a nice fit on my Sprocker spaniel, it is comfortable on him and doesn’t ride up into his armpits.
Front and back rings for double ended lead should this be required. I would definitely recommend this harness.
Easy to order and delivery was quick and on time.

This was recommended by my trainer . I have a powerful GSD and she can pull like a train . The Gencon was a game changer . No more pulling but better still, I have control of her head and so , if she is being reactive, I can turn her away . Superb head collar.
Gill Hayward –
Yes it is good & we find that it has helped with our choc Labrador stop pulling to a certain degree but he has an uncanny way of slipping it off his nose with his dew claw
Helen (verified owner) –
best thing we ever bought for a dog! Works a treat and definitely feel in control of a very strong and active dog. The difference is still noticeable when we use it and when we don’t.

A game changer, absolutely love ours my dog is a pleasure to walk

I think the headcollar is just fantastic and a lifesaver. I’d recently volunteered (stupidly) to look after a family member’s 13 month old labrador for the month of August. I’m an experienced dog owner but had sadly had to say goodbye to my 13 year old Staffy last year and missed the canine company. Unfortunately she was a nightmare on an ordinary lead and also reactive to other passing dogs so ‘walkies’ was an absolute nightmare for a pensioner like me! I tried everything I knew and even got training for using a slip lead which did help but it has its limitations and if you’re a novice they need concentration to use properly. Then she came into season and I was at my wit’s end….and exhausted! A professional dog walker came to my aid and advised me about the Gencon collar and gave me one of hers to trial. Oh wow! Yes. It was a complete game changer. total transformation in her behaviour and it became a pleasure to walk her; no more pulling and lunging and her reactions to other dogs was transformed. I even managed to take her into a coffee shop and CARRY a cup of coffee in one hand and her Gencon in the other hand and passed 3 dogs calmly to reach a table without spilling a drop lol! So I bought one for her owner and when I returned her to her family the 12 year old daughter managed to take her out for a walk without being pulled off her feet; the first time ever! It has transformed her behaviour and is an ingenious design. Thank you so much; I will be recommending this to anyone I see struggling to walk their dog!
Helen (verified owner) –
Brilliant! The effect was immediate and my 16 month old labrador has gone from towing me down the street to walking perfectly to heel on the lead. A must for anyone with a dog who just keeps pulling.
Donna (verified owner) –
Love this lead for my great Dane, she is not a massive puller but when she does pull I haven’t much control. This lead gives me the control I need should she try pulling. I have tried a gentle leader but it creeps up over her eyes, this lead does not and is very comfortable on her.
DEBRA (verified owner) –
This lead was the second one we have brought. It is the only lead we have found that stops are Welsh Springer Spaniel pull. It is a pleasure to walk him using this lead.
Jacqui (verified owner) –
Simple but effective. Easy to put on and take off. So lovely to be able to walk my vizsla,on a lead, without being pulled over! Wish I’d found this product earlier, before spending a lot on various harnesses and a halti.
Sarah –
Immediate improvement to the Sproodle’s incessant pulling. He hates it, does an abrupt volte face when he sees it and will paw it off but it clearly doesn’t hurt him – just thwarts him!
Julie Blythin (verified owner) –
The Gencon all in one is a game changer. My Flatcoat Retriever walks perfectly at heel with the Gencon on, put on a slip lead and he pulls like a train. This is the third Gencon I have owned, one each for my past and present Flatcoat. I definitely recommend them. I’d give a 100 stars if I could.

I the last two months Bear has had me over four times with his quick dashing for other dogs, cats and blowing leaves, I had had enough of being dragged around for a walk. I have tried everything that worked on my other dogs with no success . Then my wife said try this figure of eight collar. The first walk, he tried twice to get it off his nose then was ok! Fluck I thought. The next three walks perfect!!! I could not believe it. Best lead I have ever bought. Onward and upward. Thank you very much for giving me my walks back
C Larkin (verified owner) –
I bought the gencon all-in-one on the recommendation of a dog trainer I know. It has totally transformed walks with a 2 year old labrador I rescued who had no formal lead training. When I first got him he pulled incessantly, and lunged at other dogs in a way that made the owners look apprehensive and want to move away! Now I can walk with a loose lead and people comment on how lovely the dog is! He hates the bit of the lead that goes across his nose so has very quickly (in 2 weeks) got the message about not pulling and I am gradually alternating with a slip lead to check he’s got it (but also taking the gencon with me for emergencies!) I have praised the gencon to every dog owner I’ve met, and recommend it highly to anyone who struggles to control their dog.
Nikki (verified owner) –
Absolutely love this product have tired many other types of figure 8 lead and none have ever fit properly until now I have 2 very energetic Labs which I couldn’t walk together but now they walk quietly side by side and the best thing is neither of them seem to mind wearing them would highly recommend Gencon to anyone
Pete verrall (verified owner) –
Great lead for both my labs ,does exactly as prescribed
Amy Cooper (verified owner) –
I have a 1 year old Labrador who pulls like a freight train, has to sniff everything and wants to play with every dog. I had a Halti head collar that was working for a bit, then he figured he could pull through that. The Gencon was recommended by my trainer Mike and he showed me in a 1-2-1 session how to use it. The different in my dog is amazing! I can confidentially walk him without fear of being pulled over or being hurt (he’s pulled a few muscles before!) I don’t know what’s in this lead but it’s magic!

Love these collars. No more pulling my arm out when she sees a cat. They are instant as soon as you put the collar on. They really are amazing and gently on your dog.
Steve (verified owner) –
We have a very head strong 8 month Lab. Have tried many ‘no pull’ collars and harnessed without success so was not expecting too much. However, it is fair to say the change in behaviour has been instant. From day one he has stopped pulling and is now much more attentive to what he is being asked to do. Very pleasantly surprised.
Andy Wallace (verified owner) –
I bought this as a last ditch attempt but I was genuinely amazed how much of a change it’s made to my Lab’s behaviour.
Been using it for two weeks now but the change was immediate, no lunging or pulling, he actually walks at my side and walks are pleasant now. Downsides, took a day or two getting used to putting it on an excited dog but easy now.

I bought this all-in-one headcollar for my 2-year-old Border Collie. She can pull a lot in towns and when out on country walks too particularly at the start of a walk. I had tried other halti-type leads but this is by far the best, most comfortable for her and also so easy to put on and take off. I haven’t tried it in towns yet but out on our country walks she is definitely improved. When we start our walk, she is still keen but the pressure is on her and she twigs that she needs to slow down to remove the pressure. It’s also helping towards loose lead walking too. I’ve only had it for a few weeks but it’s changed our walking ‘stresses’ and she is far easier to train with it.
Susie (verified owner) –
This has been a game changer, I’d tried a couple of other brands and found they were uncomfortable for my dog. He tried to rub it off at first but is now used to it and walks with much more control, any lunging is easily brought under control and he’s doing it less often. He’s a strong breed (Rhodesian Ridgeback) weighing 45kg and to put into context I’m 5ft 3in and feel totally in control.
Mike (verified owner) –
Australian Kelpie pulling like crazy, first time used it was like having a different dog, I cannot recommend this enough, you will not regret getting one. Totally used to wearing it after about 3 walks.
Richard Portrey (verified owner) –
Don’t believe most reviews on principle. Don’t leave them either.
Bought a Gencon all in one in desperation. Have acquired a 14 month old dog Golden Labrador @ 38Kg..A rehoming case. Totally feral, no training, never been walked. Walking was a total nightmare. It’s given me plantar fasciitis in right foot, can hardly walk, back ache and very low spirts. To hold him back I was using Royal Naval anchor chain and heavy gloves !
Persuaded him to wear this device ,another story, and got a new dog. Instantly, stopped pulling, easy to control etc what’s happened to him! Has my wife slopped him a Valium or something? My neighbours don’t believe it. Instead of being dragged along, I walk past slowly, with a RELAXED lead !
So, walking has instantly become a pleasure again. However, much more important is that the dog is relaxed. He was so stressed before. I’m relaxed now as well. But even more important, is that he engages with me now. He totally ignored me before thus making training impossible. We now converse, he listens, responds to me and any orders I give. It seems to have an effect I can’t understand. When the lead is slack even, he’s responding to me. He’s looking at me. It’s a very strange effect that the company doesn’t emphasise.
One point of criticism, is that if it’s not applied properly, it can be backed out of in a situation where he’s scared. I bought the small band to clip the “X” to his normal collar. So if disaster happens, you are still attached to your dog! This is so essential in my view , that this should be a part of the basic package, not an optional extra.
In summary, if you value your health, sanity, and that of your dog, you would be well advised to try this !

It does what is says only thing I wish it was left and right all in one. As my dog likes to change sides. Wish the lead part was a bit stronger
Heather Benson (verified owner) –
Absolutely amazed at the difference this headcollar makes my Springer spaniel pulled like a train and almost felt like my shoulder would dislocate every time I took him out the Head collar has made the walks an absolute pleasure. Am so impressed that I bought one for my daughters spaniel and also a left handed one to go with my right handed one so I can walk both her dog and mine thank you so much such a difference
Peter (verified owner) –
We had a Gencon for our beloved Enzo who we lost just over a year ago. We now have a rescue cross lab/pointer and had no hesitation in getting a new Gencon for him. It works so well and make walking a pleasure, and is not harmful in any way to the dog. Highly recommend.
Michail –
I’ve had a similar lead previously, but had forgotten how effective they are. Yes, there is still a training need, but the manageability of our dog is so much improved. My wife could not handle him before, but is now able to control him all on her own. Good product.
Amanda (verified owner) –
This has been a game changer. I have tried other well known brands in head collar etc. my lab has come on leaps and bounds with this and rarely do we use the figure of 8 now.
Maeve Adams (verified owner) –
Really great product, easy to use and VERY effective. it starts working from the first use and unlike a traditional slip lead, it lies flat on the dog so, in my opinion, it’s much kinder on the dog and less likely to cause irritation or discomfort
Mary Cook (verified owner) –
Really pleased with this product. Has made a HUGE difference to my teenage dog!! He has accepted it well and doesn’t pull like a train anymore. I have tried other products but this is clearly the kindest and the most successful.
Karina Jeans (verified owner) –
We got this product for our 2 year old cocker spaneil. Well all i can say absolutely brilliant, a game changer. Our boy pulled like a train and going for a walk was not pleasant. Aftera couple off days off using it it is now a pleasure to go for a walk. Highly recommend this product.
Mike (verified owner) –
This came highly recommended, so bought one having tried slip leads and head collar for our now 15 month GSP. It has made n
Very little difference as she still pulls and it’s even worse when she sees a cat. Also found that tight handed lead can also be left hand merely by turning it over. All this despite taking her with me to dog training classes since she was old enough to go. A bit disappointed
Emily (verified owner) –
Recieved really quickly, these all in one leads/collars really are the best ever for stopping dogs pulling. They last for years and years and are really strong. Thanks gencon!

Absolute game changer! Six month old 25kg pup had no trouble at all accepting the all in one collar & lead. Walks have been so easy from first use. Highly recommend!
Duncan Rolley (verified owner) –
8 month old Vizsla puppy had the usual refusal to move, nose stratching capers but for 2 days and since then has been transformed – no pulling and quite happy with a ‘loose’ lead. Great bit of kit
Katrina Cooke (verified owner) –
It definitely works, no pulling or lunging.Early days as she has not got used to it yet but will persevere. Does not sort out the root reason for pulling but is a good tool to have when training. Would recommend.
JILLIAN KERR (verified owner) –
The all in one was an instant success. I no longer need a shoulder replacement! Walking my standard poodles is a joy with absolutely no pulling. They are much calmer, do not show aggression to other dogs (which they did, thanks to experiences at the dog park!) and our walks are a pleasure. The all in one has changed our lives, so much better. I haven’t seen anything similar in Australia and delivery from England was within a week.

As a person who has RA I’m well impressed with my lead my walks with my dog have been so much easier now.
10/10
Lindsey Harrison (verified owner) –
100% perfect product. This is the second one I’ve bought and wouldn’t buy anything else. I simply cannot walk my hyperactive dog without it. He behaves so well with the Gencon lead and walks are a pleasure not a chore.
Mavis Wrightson (verified owner) –
Bought one of these years ago and was a huge success for my dog at that time. It is still in good condition but thought I would treat my new dog to a lovely new purple one and once again this all in one has made a huge difference to her pulling and is especially good when she sees a cat I have immediate control and therefore she gives up so much quicker. Can’t fault them.
Lindsey Harrison (verified owner) –
Fantastic. I wouldn’t walk my dog without it. Good price and quality.
