I dont want to start a contraversy, so I'll just give you my opinion, and assume that opposing opinions will follow. I have found a Gentle Leader head halter to work wonderfully with my 85-lb dobie that also likes to pull when on a leash. You want to use some common sense when using any head-halter, though, and not jerk on it or allow the dog to wander off from right beside you. Also, a 'choker' type of training collar placed high on the dog's neck, at the jaw line, and NOT against the trachea, works well for me also.
If you are a novice to either of these training devices, I would suggest that you ask someone who is familiar with them to SHOW you the proper way to use them.
BTW---Dobies are great, aren't they? :-)
