Animal Smiley 036 leash training

Toby is 14 weeks and Im trying to get him to walk on his leash so we can go for walks outside to take cae of his pent up energy. He totally hates it, i use positive reinforcement with treats and praise but he just tries to pull back and cry. I am using a collar right now (i dont want to tug hard and hurt him) but we also have a harness to but he is still to little for it right now (he tries to chew on it and his jaw gets stuck open). Any suggestions.

Also thanks to those who posted on my last question, letting up on scruff shake is helping, and i found a treat that he likes better so the positive reinforcement is starting to actually make a difference!!

Thanks!
