A few weeks back I met with a nice couple to help them with their eight month old labra-doodle.
As we were going through some leash walking exercises the wife turned to me and said:
“You make this all look so easy.”
I had to suppress a chuckle as I thought back on all the times I had made a complete fool out of myself trying to learn how to train dogs.
I know firsthand what it’s like to get yanked so hard that it felt like my elbow was going to leave my arm.
My most painful leash walking memory is the time I was working with a young husky on leash walking.
I was at the park and there were some girls playing Frisbee. Trying to look cool I started working the husky.
The husky being much smarter than me somehow ran around behind me, wrapping my legs up in the leash and I fell flat on my face, much to the amusement of the girls who were watching.
Why am I sharing all of this with you?
Because I have a new video to show you some basic leash training techniques.
Once you understand and work on the basics you can get much better results.
Here you go:
All the best
