Thursday training tip:


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!
