Any success with leash pulling? I am just about at my wits end with this whole leash pulling thing. Wookie is 3 years old now and will not stop pulling! I hate to think that I just have to quit taking him for walks! I have tried sooooo many things. I tried Victoria Stillwell's method of turning him to go another direction when he pulls...nothing. Tried Tamar Gellars method of stop walking and don't start walking again til he takes a step back and feels the slack in the leash...nothing...he starts pulling again as soon as we start back. It takes us FOREVER just to go a few houses down the street. I have tried giving him treats when he does the behavior that I want, but when we are outside, he wants nothing to do with treats. Even boiled chicken!! I bought the EZ walk harness that clips in front, as soon as he pulls hard and his legs raise up off the ground the harness comes off his legs! I have tried 3 different sizes and adjusted them a million ways. I just get so aggravated because he is choking and hacking, and I know its not good for him. He can't be getting a good walk out of it, and neither do I. Has anyone tried anything else or have any recommendations that we could try? |
