That's great! When I walk mine, I do let them walk in front of me as long as they are not pulling on the leash. Also, I have found that if I just let them walk fast or run for the first house or two, they slow down and walk at a normal pace. They are just excited to be outside and they aren't so much pulling but they just want to walk FAST! Letting them go as fast as they want for 1/2 a block or so get it out of their system and they walk very nicely the rest of the way.
