I need your secrets!!! I have a Husky and she just wants to pull me. She's walking me not the other way around

These are amazing.

I worry about the dogs joints with those


another thing is training tools can be great to help you manage the dog but they don’t train the dog not to pull, what ever you decide to use you will still have to train the dog as well

They can be bad for the shoulders. But if it’s only temporary it should be fine.

I am happy to try and help as much as I can with training advice, people are welcome to pm me if they want!

I know many wont agree that this works but it does. It worked on the strongest most stubborn saint benard ive ever met. Walking a 200lbs saint benard thats pulling you is no fun.
When the dog starts pulling turn the other direction until it stops. And continue.

Another way is to train your dog to come back when the leash tightens.
Basically start by throwing a treat on the ground far enough away that the leash just tightens up, wait till they eat the treat and then keep tightening the leash till they come back. I used a clicker to teach this to Tucker.

Pm me, I have a fix for even the hardest to train dogs (leash training)… but I warn you it’s not for the faint of heart

Y’all don’t gotta be sad it’s not mean or anything

Y’all don’t gotta be sad it’s not mean or anything

Then why not for the faint hearted?

I'd personally like to hear it

The thing that has helped me the most with leash training is realising that a lot of it is actually working on how your dog feels or reacts to things rather then the action of walking with you. Walking with you is a important bit to train but you might also need to work on impulse control, being calm in the environment and engagement

Some people may not like it, simple as that
