I have a very happy and bouncy little foster puppy. I am used to pups initially hating the lead and usually introduce it with treats and training just around the house but this guy will not budge if he has a lead on. He is fine when it is on and he is wandering around the house but he absolutely flatly refuses to move in a walk situation. I have left it for a while because although he wasn't showing any signs of stress, it just wasn't happening. Now I want to overcome this before it becomes an issue. Open to all advice and, no, I don't use a choke chain! The thing is, I rarely use leads, dogs leap in and out of car and only walk on beach (Muslim country so not out in public) but I am preparing him for rehoming and I expect most people will expect their dog to be able to walk on a lead!
