I agree shorten the leash when you walk her. Let her get used to it for a few days and then give her some more slack on the leash...by then she'll be walking straight. Just make sure that when she's walking...she's walking beside you and not in front of you. As you know, all dogs are pack dogs and you need to show her that you are the pack leader (I think I learned this from Cesar Milan's Dog Whisperer show).
