Like I said, use the collar & leash loosely. If the pup makes the first attempt to pull away or jump around it would come off immediately! Teppi has never pulled or jerked when I do this. I think she thinks she's @ her groomer's. She either sits & sniffs around or just lays down while I brush or do anything needed to be done. She's done very well. It all boils down to the individual pup. Some may not take to it at all. It's just trial & error, but not in a hurting way, of course. Just like with any kind of training. |
