OK I am confused now lol

I am talking about the head harness that looks like a horse bridle. I tried the harness that goes around the body and that did nothing at all.

To each his own!

PS: Have someone at the store show you how to put it on BEFORE you leave (if you get the "horse bridle" easy walk harness). Otherwise it could take hours lol

I am not sure which device the person who's dog slipped out is talking about, but if you put the one I am talking about on correctly it is impossible for it to slip off the dogs head. (If you have it too loose around the muzzle it can come off, which is why I recommend asking someone at the store to show you)

You're talking about this one right here?

My dogs do the impossible every day. His throat was the same width as the widest part of his head. He pulled straight backwards, did this little flip thing with his head, and was free. Nothing is impossible with a determined GSD!

I thought the Halti headcollars have a safety strap you attach to the dog's collar, so if they did get out of the Halti their leash would still be attached to their collar via the strap. Mine actually doesn't have one of these because it is a really old model but I made my own using a really small training tab. However I have never had my dog pull the Halti off or get out of it at all.

i think you should train your dog not to pull.
do you think your dog can't pull because it's in a harness???
