I have a puller!!! I use a tie-blocker and it does work. 
I'm guilty of buying a "gadget". However, the cool thing
about this thing is you can take it anywhere and it's great
for tying in the trailer, if the horse ever falls it gives
them enough slack to be able to get themselves back on
their feet. At least I know I won't show up somewhere with
a horse that has hanged himself. It has greatly improved my
horse's confidence and has made him relax on the lead line
(while tied.) You can use it on a highline as well. I use
it for all my horses, pullers or not! Go to Clinton
Anderson's website (he endorses them) or go to
www.equineelite.com/tiering.html

Good luck, pullers are not fun!! I've had 2 now, never had
a tie-blocker with the other one!
