Re: Still pulling on lead

Glad to read this post! Stopping dead in my tracks worked for Busta; he now walks on heel everytime we're out (I, too, had issues with him pulling on the leash at about 7-9 months). The prong helped a GREAT deal, so did taking away his "free walks." Busta is a very dominant dog with high rank drive.

The stopping dead, however, does NOT work on the nearly 3-month-old White GSD that I'm currently training. I just came back inside with her from trying to walk on a loose leash and she was pulling ahead, infront, and everywhere else. I've been using this technique for several weeks now.

I'm going to try moving into her space. Thanks for the tips!
