Have trained a lot of dogs not to pull by just stopping moving forward as soon as the leash goes taut. When it goes limp, we walk forward. Eventually, dog get the idea pulling means all action, walking, fun and going forward just stop and they stop pulling. Don't despair, it takes time but they get it.

Others like to turn around and walk in the opposite direction with the dog the moment they pull. It can look pretty silly but that works too.
