Wondered if anyone has advice, our 1 yr old cockapoo is still not great on the lead. For the last few months I have been doing the "stop-start" approach. So as soon as his head goes down and he starts pulling I stop. He's learned to immediately stop and come back to me but as soon as I start walking he just immediately goes right ahead and starts pulling again.
It takes AGES to get anywhere as I have to keep stopping (or stopping then walking a few paces in the opposite direction) to snap him out of it.
Will he ever get it!??? Is there another level I can take this to? Treats don't seem to work and it's getting so frustrating. Otherwise he's a really good boy and has great recall etc. He's just high energy so finds it hard to walk at my pace, and I walk really fast!
