Getting your dog to walk on a leash is one of many struggles facing dog owners. Some dogs hate the leash. They struggle, bite the leash, pull and fight against it. Others just want to GO!!! They want to go faster than you can walk! Others just ignore you completely and sniff around as they meander down the sidewalk at their own pace.
Walking your dog on a leash doesn’t have to be a struggle. With firm guidance, proper use of tools, and some dedicated training time, your dog can transform his crazy walk to a beautiful, relaxing “heel”.
Check out Misha in our featured video today. She was a Board & Train trainee and in just two walks has loose-leash walking down! If you follow to the end, you’ll even see her off leash (completely under control) and going straight to place once we return from the walk.
Life with your furry friend doesn’t have to be stressful. It can be wonderful and fulfilling. Training your dog to behave is just one of the many ways to get there.
