which are gonna help you to get your dog to stop pulling on the leash
I'm gonna share with you three practical tips that if you start putting it into
action I guarantee you you're gonna see results right away or within few days of
this but it's important to look at it from a realistic point of view so first
tip is for the next few weeks maybe for a month even try not to take your dog to
a dog park I know it's against everything that you know but the dog
park is too much for your dog at the moment if your dog is one of those dogs
who's pulling on leash don't take it to the dog park practice it in your house
in your yard in outside of your building or wherever near or nearby parks where
there are not many people even if you have to get in the car and drive
somewhere that you can find a part that is very quiet there's nobody around
there's no dogs around you may want to go and practice in those kinds of parks
you want to practice the techniques that I'm gonna show you and the idea that I'm
going to share with you in an environment that there's less
distractions around tip number two is that don't go out of the door of your
house until you have about 90% control of your dog and you have a dog who's 90%
calmer than five minutes ago or 10 minutes ago or half an hour ago so what
I mean by this is if you're planning to go for let's say half an hour walk and
your dog is getting excited because he knows that it's going for a walk then
don't open that door until you have a lot of control and calm energy in your
dog so this may take 10 minutes this may take 20 minutes this may take 25 minutes
for your dog to calm down if it takes your dog 25 minutes to calm down you
just go for a 5 minute walk and come back that 25 minutes that you spent to
teach your dog to calm down every day for the next month month and a half is
more important than the walk itself and the third tip that I'm gonna share with
you is very important also and it's another key in controlling and managing
your dogs pulling on the leash this might sound strange to you but I want you to
put it in practice I want you to think of it this way when you're taking your dog
for a walk it's your dog's walk it's not your walk you're not going out for a
walk and you're taking your dog for a walk your dog needs to go for a walk and
you're taking your dog for a walk and you're there to just manage and control
so you have to allow your dog to do whatever it wants I know you're saying
but it's gonna pull it's gonna do this it's gonna do that so this is why you're
practicing for a month month and a half or two months in an environment that is
controlled and managed and there is no distraction so your dog can learn faster
so therefore your dog can start learning what it's supposed to do and how he's
supposed to do so when you take your dog in an environment that there is not much
distractions your dog automatically is going to get into doing what is
naturally do usually they start sniffing around or they will
just stroll they will spend a lot of time in a certain spot for five minutes
maybe they're gonna sniff a spot your job is just to go and let your dog to do
whatever it wants if it wants to smell some spot for ten minutes out of that 30
minutes that you have selected to walk your dog let your dog to sniff ten
minutes in one spot so let your dog do whatever it wants so if you put these
three tips into action starting tomorrow you will see that within a week or two
it will get easier and better and in a month or so your dog is not going to be
pulling as much as it's pulling today you don't need to use treats you don't
need to use tools like shock collars and prong collars any of those aversive
tools you don't need to use force you don't need to use domination in order to
get your dog to walk properly with you is that simple I guarantee you if you
put this into action you will see results and remember if you want to get
