I know this has probably been done to death but I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to get a (big) dog to stop pulling?
So far we've gone through 2 halit's, and a gentle leader each - they have broken them all!
We've now got another one which seems s a bit more effective (although we've only used it once so far!) but it's clear to me that the problem is not the collar/harness thing we use but the dogs themselves - I just don't know how best to train them not to pull!
I want to get to the point with them where we can take them out just on collars and not even need a head harness for them and they will walk fine but at the moment I dread taking them out because they pull the whole time and I feel like my arm's going to come off! I can't walk the boy at all because he is just too strong when he pulls so the only one who can take him out is my DH :(
I want to enjoy walking my dogs! Help!
