Do you hate taking your dog for a walk because the dog is walking you by pulling and lunging in every direction except where we wish to go? As soon as your pup pulls, stop all forward motion. Wait until the pup turns and looks at you and then immediately give him a treat. Then start forward again. You may wish to speak to the pup as you go to encourage it to look at you. Be sure to reward this behavior frequently and before you know it, your dog will be staying close by your side because it know where the goodies are coming from. Do not reward the dog that pulls ahead by continuing any forward motion. Pretty soon you will be walking your dog instead of the other way around. Happy Heeling!
