I used to work at a pet store, and a guy came in asking for a size up on the Gentle Leader. I looked down at his lab, and this poor dog had the fur completely missing off its muzzle in the perfect shape of a gentle leader strap. It's like the dog was forced to wear it 24 hours a day. Either that or it was jerked around a lot. >X.x;<
