This is our second Muffin's Halo we've ordered for our dog, Luna. She was born with ocular malformations, including microphthalmia. Her vision has decreased over the years, and last year our vet suggested we try getting her a Muffin's Halo. After a week of introducing her to the halo, she was so much more confident and less fearful navigating the house and even on walks. Before the Halo she had run into objects on walks as her vision decresed and she became scared and anxious. Now she is visibly more confident when she's wearing the halo and when we move furniture or are in a new place, we makes sure we bring the Halo. I highly recommend this game-changer, be patient as you introduce, but be ready to be so relieved and happy for your blind pet.
Our sweet 9 year old Frenchie Daphne finally lost the battle with glaucoma in May 2025 losing vision in her remaining eye before enucleation. While she was spending a month long recovery in a cone, we knew we needed to figure something out for long-term safety and comfort. The cone did not go well with verbal cues due to sound distortion. She has now been wearing her halo for about 7 weeks and is doing tremendously well. It gives her the confidence to navigate her new world better and gives us peace of mind since we are both working adults where she is left unattended by humans for several hours during the day. The structure of the three-piece set is far superior to any alternative we had purchased and considered. The clear winner was Muffin’s Halo, and we came back to purchase another two colors! It is sturdy, comfortable, and clearly made of quality materials. Rest assured that customer support is amazing as well. We were accidentally shipped an incorrect size and support was extremely quick to respond and send out a replacement for exchange. It’s important to note that their normal return policy doesn’t permit for refunds or exchanges so be mindful of triple measuring your pets.
Hi Jennifer,
Thank you so much for sharing Daphne’s story and for your kind words! We’re so happy to hear that Muffin’s Halo has helped her navigate with more confidence and brought you peace of mind during this transition.
We're also glad our team could quickly get the correct size to you. Just as an FYI, we do offer exchanges to ensure pets get the correct size they need, so you can always reach out if adjustments are ever required!
Wishing you and Daphne all the best!
Warm regards,
Muffin's Halo Team
Less than a year after having cataract removal surgery, the retinas in both of my senior Chihuahua's eyes tore within 2 weeks of each other so he went from partially sighted to fully blind. He's already deaf and became very distressed, bumping into everything, until he refused to move at all and would just cry.
It took him about 2 days to adjust to the Halo, but now he knows when the vest is on his face is protected and he's much more confident moving around, especially outside on a walk.
We of course take it off at night but he will snooze it during the day comfortably and knows when he's wearing it that he's safe to walk around.
He is still adjusting to this new life but I'm happy the Halo has made him feel safer overall. Highly recommended.
Muffin’s Halo has been a game-changer for my 13-year-old dog, who recently lost her vision. Before using the halo, she frequently bumped into furniture and even developed an eye ulcer from one of the impacts. Since introducing the halo, she no longer injures her face when navigating around the house.
The only minor drawback is that the halo has started to lose its shape, likely due to repeated contact with furniture and getting caught on the bottom edge of the oven door. Despite this, it continues to function effectively and has made a noticeable difference in her safety and confidence.
My 16 year old Chihuahua Peal is blind.
Within moments of wearing her halo she had acclimated to it and was no longer walking into things.
It’s an amazing find for us, even my other ( fully sighted dogs) can see how it’s helping all of us.
She’s also stopped getting underfoot which is a bonus for me, as I’m not tripping over her.
I adopted my little poodle from the shelter about six months ago- she is blind and has been getting around the house OK, but she always moved around very carefully. It took her about two days to get used to it and figure out how to move around easily. The first day she kept trying to "shake" off the halo, but after a day she got used to it and finally started figuring it out. The velcro is strong and it stays put on her, although it seems to move around less when it is put on over a little jacket, so she wears both. With the halo, she is much more confident and moves much more quickly- plus I don't have to worry about her hurting herself! :) It's so lovely to see her feel more comfortable in her surroundings! I would definitely recommend!
I bought this for my 13 1/2 year old miniature schnauzer baby who just recently went totally blind. The quality of this product, and the confidence boost it’s given my little girl with navigating her new reality, are phenomenal. 10/10 recommend!
The Muffin Halo is a game changer for our blind dog. It helps him navigate confidently, safely without bumping his head. Giving him more confidence and freedom. It's so easy to put on and take off. Highly recommend!
It's very lightweight which is a great thing. My dog is very picky and was not adapting well to losing most of his sight (old age) but he doesnt have a problem with the halo at all. He quickly realized what it's for. I'm relieved that I can let him down and move around without him hurting himself.
The halo was purchased for my 16 year old Miniature Pinscher whose vision is almost 100% obscured due to cataracts. I was surprised as to how quickly he adapted to wearing the halo, which has given him confidence while walking anywhere he wants to go. It has prevented him from bumping into familiar furniture and walls that had previously caused him to get hurt. It also offers protection from a testy housecat that swipes at anyone or anything that invades his personal space. Because of his long, Minpin face, his nose does protrude past the side of the halo when he turns his head, but it hasn't been much of a concern. As recommended in order to prevent the halo from sliding to one side or the other due to the dog's short, smooth hair, I place a shirt (or sweater) under the halo and it does not slip at all. My dog happily wags his little tail when I put his angel wings and halo on him because he knows he can freely navigate with confidence.
Works great. My stubborn Bichon thinks he knows best about where to take himself and the halo has saved his face from lots of bruises
Mabel is the sweetest quirky pittie pup that has one heck of a story and most of it is assumption as she was found. She has almost no vision, maybe some shadow light contrast in one eye, but is about it. She’s about 4-6 years old so unknown how long she’s been blind, but we do not believe she was born this way. She is so smart and has learned to navigate beautifully, but at the expensive of her head. This ring has helped her navigate without clocking her noggin on corners and cabinets. It was easy to assemble, soft on her, and that is some industrial Velcro! She is dashing in pink as well. The halo was very well made and stood the test of a hardheaded pittie. Thank you for this wonderful product. If I ever foster another blind pittie, you will be my first stop and I am definitely going to share you guys to my rescue buddies.
This has been a great help with my blind Cavalier. It just took a couple of days for him to get used to it and it prevents so many bumps. I wish I had bought this right away, it would have saved so many trips to the vet for bumped eyes. Even though my house is set up for him he is still an active dog and has bumped his eyes several times. The halo is sturdy and sits above the head unlike the other styles I have seen that sits at the eyes. I would suggest this to anyone, it's easy, light weight and study. Very much worth the money. He also loves it now and looks so so cute in it.
I love, LOVE this Halo! I had another, poor quality halo from Amazon, and within a week the halo was bent, he was stepping on it, and it was useless. The Muffins Halo is outstanding! It’s great quality, durable, comfortable, maintains its shape so the halo stays right where it’s supposed to be - in front to keep him safe from bumping into things. My fur baby LOVES the Muffins Halo! He has so much more confidence now navigating the house and yard! He can “see” where he’s going - it’s like he has his own service dog to guide him around :-)! The halo wings provide comfort and stability and the design is flawless and it’s so well made! Pricey but sooo worth it - like they say - you get what you pay for and this halo is worth every dime! Thanks, Muffins Halo, for giving my blind baby a brand new life!
I feel my dog has gotten back some of his confidence since he doesn’t smack into everything anymore . He’s more confident on his feet and he moves faster. It sometime slides to the side or doesn’t fit exactly right but it does the job it’s supposed to do . I’m glad he’s able to get a little more exercise around the house now . I would Deff recommend.
He’s still adjusting to it. So far he’s not hitting his head as much.
Muffins halo made a world of difference, Wally was blinded in a accident, it was head trauma, no bodily injury, he seemed depressed and withdrawan,as soon as I put the halo on, he started walking around, and now he is all over the place exploring, I created a room for him and had it padded, but he knows where his bed is and his water. I love it, he lives it. Thank you so much for helping me turn a tragedy into a whole new life for my Wally 🐾
Olive's new harness was quick and easy to put together. Though the Number 7 wings are just slightly smaller than her shoulders, I could bend them enough to make them fit. She learned to get around quickly. Only thing I miss is a grip on the back of the harness if I have to pull her back by hand. Maybe your next version will have that! Olive is a 5-year-old mix who came down with glaucoma this summer and quickly lost her eyesight. She has since had both eyes removed and is recovering from that operation while wearing a cone, of course. Once the sutures are removed she'll be back to her halo.
The halo is a wonderful product to help your pup navigate his world when he becomes blind. Our pups was just 2 years old when a fungal infection, Blastomycosis, robbed him of his eyesight. I found Muffin's Halo online, purchase one and it helps him immensely especially outside when he wants to try to explore the yard & woods. The halo gives him the confidence that he won't walk into a tree or bush or anything else, without the halo stopping him before damage can be done to his eyes. It takes some getting used to as it's a little bulky but it's a terrific product and it protects your furry loved one from doing any further harm to their eyes. Thank you!
My baby seams much more confident with it on. Still learning to navigate; but so far feel like it’s been a great purchase
My poor 15 year old dog suddenly went blind. Just started bumping into walls. I ordered this right away and am so glad I did. Saving her poor little head. She was so stressed and the halo has allowed her to be calm again. She got use to it quickly. She is use to wearing a harness though. Totally recommend it. The reason I picked the muffin over others was that it is Velcro so it will detach if she gets caught. I couldn't find any others that did. Safety is important.
