I tried everything for Uni. She is a sled dog on crack. She pulled so hard she started to make her back toe nails bleed. And not just a bit of red, it looked like she dipped her foot into red paint.

I tried the EZ walk, Uni would just pull to get the lead up under her armpit and continue to pull. I didn't want to try the kind that attached to the head, bc she will just snap her little head off. I won't even try it.

I bought the anit pull harness from Walmart and it helped a little bit. I tried the change directions and look crazy thing. I tried the sit and wait to calm down bit. She would sit but never calm down.

The only thing that I have found that works is an extra long retractable leash, so she doesnt feel like she is being held back. This is what you are NOT supposed to do to a puller, give them what they want. BUT I felt like I had tried everything (and really tried, not just tried one time) and this is the only thing that makes her look semi-sane.
