At some point, most dog owners will encounter the problem of pulling their dog on a leash. This sometimes happens at the worst possible time and can be a problem for the owner and the dog.
The best way to get the tug off the leash is to train your dog for the leash at a very young age. When you start walking with your dog, try not to predict where you are going and what you are doing. If you notice that your dog will get off the end of the leash, turn in the opposite direction to the direction you are moving.
Be sure to change the direction before tightening the belt. By doing this, your dog is constantly learning to pay attention to what he is doing, rather than following his own path, at every corner, especially at the beginning. Therefore, you will end up with belt removal problems before they become a problem at all.
One of the most effective ways to stop the habit of pulling on your dog's leash is to use the Start and Stop method. The true beauty of this method is its simplicity. When your dog starts pulling on a leash, stop walking and let it heal. It is. There is no more.
Do this every time your dog pulls on a leash, and over time, the problem of pulling on a leash becomes smaller. As with all aspects of dog training, consistency and repeatability are important. Dogs are habitual animals, so use that habit to your advantage to get rid of your dog's leash.
When training your dog on a leash, it's important not to let your frustration guide you when things are not going the way you expect. Your dog feeds on his negative feelings, takes on a similarly frustrated posture and can easily get nervous. At this point, anything you try to teach will not be learned and is likely to be a setback.
Regardless of the method you use when trying to stop or prevent the leash, reward it positively if your dog does something positive. A positive enhancement through treats, compliments, or a combination of both greatly enhances the workout you want to achieve.
