The easiest way to stop leash pulling

_____

This is how we stop ANY dog from pulling on the leash in just 15 minutes.

We’ve implemented this exact loose leash walking system on over 350+ dogs with a 100% success rate, so we know it works. No BS.

This video is for any dog 6+ months old.

Dog trainers online love to overcomplicate the loose leash walking. If you make pulling bad and make not pulling good, your dog will stop pulling. Very simple.

Corsair (dog in video) was fear-reactive towards other dogs when we started training. She would lunge, growl, and bark at them. But before we could fix the reactivity, we first had to fix the loose leash walking. Her fear-reactivity case study will be coming out soon.

If your dog won't take food around distractions, simply use praise.

Note: Loose leash walking is NOT a heel. Heeling is a separate behavior. We give the dog lots of freedom in the loose leash walking because we believe it’s important for them to be dogs!

Holy ____! I had stopped walking my 21lb 2 year old corgi because she PULLED 100% of the time and blasted off like a cannon ball at what ever she found interesting. I'm 76 and was afraid she'd wreck my knee again. I had tried EVERYTHING I could with a flat collar. Today, 50 minutes watching the prong collar video, 15 minutes watching the pull video, 15 minutes of GENTLE active conditioning with string cheese, soft pulls, u turns and random turns and she had it down. Then we took a walk. 100% loose leash. Probably 50 times with those liquid brown eyes looking up at me to see what was next. For the first time in her life. I got the collar and leash out again later and I thought she'd break her butt with wagging and jumping. Stood still for my fumbling on the prong collar and off we went. No blasting through the front door. No tugging me to the sidewalk. Loose lead all the way. I know we have more training to do, but this is a game changer. She loves walks and now she can have them. She knows what I want and she seems really happy to do it. Terrific trainer. Very detailed with the how, whys and demonstrations.

I used this today…though with our regular flat collar (my dog is only 15 pounds and I didn’t want to pay for something else that may or may not work). Today was our first walk in over a year without him dragging me all over the place. Two leash corrections were all it took. So thank you!

Undoubtedly, THE best loose leash walking tutorial I have seen (and I have seen many, many hours of it!) Thank you so much for all your incredibly helpful content. I have always rescued dogs, usually GSD's, and I am a confident handler. However, my latest rescue is "challenging" shall we say 😊 She's a Mal x GSD and (as usual with rescues) has had no training whatsoever. She is super clever (of course) but very strong willed and has come to me from a very nasty environment so was initially incredibly nervous and anxious. Your content has helped (is helping) me learn to be the best handler I possibly can to help her move forward. THANK YOU!

Could you please make a video on how to desensitise / walk a nervous fearful dog?

[drdrm]

Hey the prong collar is banned in my state in Australia. What is the best alternative? Thanks.
Love your videos! I love your teaching style!

Excellent video, and it should also be noted that loose leash walking begins before you leave the house ...with a calm dog who waits for its owner to walk out of the door first and not behind the dog. Thank you for all your training videos. Extremely helpful to this trainer.

This whole time I wasn't giving effective corrections. Yesterday i brought my dog to the busiest park in Denver and it took ONE actual correction and he had zero reactions after that. He was even able to lay down unprompted and just take in the dogs and new smells. We'll do this a few more times then I'll put him to the test of actually walking past other dogs 🤞 hopefully we won't regress. The real challenge will be implementing the training in my Chihuahua terrier 🤣. Both of my dogs are 8 years old but better late than never i suppose

Thank you so much for this! You are a gifted educator!

Is there any other collar i can use because prong collars are illegal in my country

How do you leash training a puppy? Also do you use prong caller to a puppy as well?

[rachelsutherland]

Leash "pops" are just cruel. Yes the dog "Gives in to it" as you say, but I want a relationship with my dog not a dominance hierarchy or a master slave dynamic. A dog will be more Optimistic in themselves and more dedicated to their human if they train through Willingness and co-operation.

This is a very good video, that gives me hope regarding getting my 8 month old GSD to walk on a lose leash!

[joanne]

Thank you So much!!! Your explanations then demonstration is incredibly helpful!! Awesome job, can't tell you how Many videos I've watched, your is by far BEST ONE, easy to watch and understand! Thank you so so much... I'm working with 65 lb beautiful pit, Emily,who usually takes me for most of the walk ... I'm 72yo with bad knees But love walks with her, can't wait to try your method !! God bless you sir ❤😊

Thank you for this! I was hesitant to use the prong collar so I've been using a halti headcollar the last almost 2 years which for the most part work not too bad until my dog wants something really bad, like getting to another dog or something to sniff. I really didn't feel like I was in control. After watching this video 3 or 4 times, I thought I'd give it a go. First practicing in the backyard and on quiet streets, last week I started taking my dog on park walks and have to say he is a different dog. I don't even need to do any corrections, even after coming in contact with a reactive dog, mine checked in with me looked at the dog and continued on our walk. So far so good - thanks again!

Can we use this technique with puppies? I don’t know on spring collar is appropriate for a 5 month old dog.
