need help with dog walking
Hi,
I'm no expert but perhaps you could try walking him in his own surroundings first before the street. The street can be noisy and destracting. Try the backyard and inside the house so he gets familiar with the lead. Some people say to leave the lead on the dog for a while to get used to it before you take the dog for a walk. What I do with my dog (who loves to walk me!) is stop every time he starts to pull me forward and reward him for good behaviour. I'm sure some experts in this field will post here soon. Good luck, Lisa |

Yeah, but that AIN'T gonna heelp {): ~ ( The street can be noisy and destracting. THIS IS A FORUM FOR EXPERIENCED AND INEXPERIENCED AND I NEVER PROFESSED TO BE AN EXPERT, JUST SPREADING WHAT I THOUGHT MIGHT ASSIST SOMEONE IN NEED. Then all the better as a trainin environment. You see, when there's EXXXTRANEHOWES activity the brain necessarily engages more attention therefore INCREASES the ability to think, rationalize an solve problems. LikeWIZE, when the behaviors are LEARNED they'll not NEED "proofin" as the so called "EXXXPERTS" are always talkin abHOWET. Try the backyard NO. The dogs backard is his FREE AREA. Workin the dog in his yard often makes them resentful. and inside the house so he gets familiar with the lead. It wouldn't hurt to handle him anywhere anytime on lead, so long as he ain't "trainin" in the dog's FREE AREA. I SEE, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT JERRY! AN INTERESTING CONCEPT. ILL KEEP IT IN MIND. Some people say to leave the lead on the dog for a while to get used to it before you take the dog for a walk. Some people say to jerk an choke the dog on pronged spiked pinch choke collars an shock them {): ~ ( What I do with my dog (who loves to walk me!) Oh? You mean you got the same problem? is stop every time he starts to pull me forward and reward him for good behaviour. Oh? You musta got that from dr. ian dunbar's "make like a tree' method of trainin the heel {): ~ ) NO, I DO HAVE A SIMILAR PROBLEM BUT NOT SO EXTREME AND I AM TAKING MY DOG TO A DOG TRAINING CLUB. |
