We use a harness, and a 4' nylon lead. I think i have to be more consistent. Every time he pulls I make him stop for a bit and then begin to walk. But it doesn't seem to work. Maybe it just needs time.
As for the grass. I live in an apartment. So I don't know what is put in the grass. The times that he did eat a quite a bit of grass he threw up, and there was chunks of grass in the vomit.
When people or dogs are coming our way, I make him sit, but that only works until the person is directly in front of us. Maybe I can try to distract him with some treats.
What would be the best way to socialize Shadow? We just started our Petsmart training class. Hope this would help with that. |
