Does your dog drag you around while on walks? Do they control the walk and make the whole walking experience unpleasant? Is your dog-owning dream losing its sparkle?
There is a solution to this common struggle that doesn't involve punishment or force.
Walking your dog can be challenging when it constantly pulls on the leash. This struggle arises when your dog moves ahead, exerts excessive pressure on the leash and causes discomfort for both the dog and you.
Excessive pulling disrupts the pace and enjoyment of the walk. Your dog's behaviour may lead to erratic movements or sudden lunges, making it difficult to maintain control and posing safety risks, especially in busy or unfamiliar environments.
Leash pulling stems from your dog's instinct to explore and investigate its surroundings or a lack of proper leash training. Excitement or distractions, such as other animals or scents, can cause further problems.
Addressing this problem requires patience and reward-based, force-free, positive reinforcement techniques. Show your dog that walking calmly beside you is more rewarding than charging ahead and pulling. This will enhance the walking experience and strengthen the dog-guardian bond, fostering better communication and mutual understanding during outdoor activities.
Great, you've taken your first step towards helping your dog with their emotional and behavioural struggle.
The next step is to book a FREE chat with Tom from Heeling Hounds to discuss your dog and how reward-based, force-free, positive reinforcement training will help develop your dog's skills to become calmer and no longer pull excessively.
