B725 Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 I can think of one or two so called trainer's that should wear one of those especially those that pick their dog's up by the ear's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12gauge82 Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Best advice for stopping a dog pulling is never ever let them make progress while pulling on the lead,it takes some time and patience but it will become a learnt behaviour not to pull with time. It is harder with highly driven dogs but it is possible.

Like you say, anyone that needs to pick a dog up by the ears isn't fit to refer to themselves as a trainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But given a bit of time, if he learns that unless he stays by your side he won't take a single step forwards, ever and that's what I've found ultimately works.

Seems to work - I get the long line may tangle … I usually get rid of the long line before rewarding for play, it's unlikely but I have seen an injury or two from a leg getting tangled, also goes without saying to be very careful with a long line if near traffic. Fantastic photo though 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
