Does every walk feel like your dog is taking YOU for a walk? 🐕 Pulling isn't stubbornness — dogs simply move faster than we do, and the world out there smells amazing.
A few things worth trying:
✅ Leash goes tight? Stop and “be a tree”. Move again only when it loosens
✅ Reward the moment your dog is walking right beside you
✅ Practice somewhere quiet first, then add distractions
✅ Use a well-fitted harness instead of a collar to protect the neck
✅ Keep sessions short — 5 to 10 minutes, but every day
Above all, skip the leash jerks and scolding. They only add stress and make pulling worse. 💛
