Yup-same deal on our coupler. They just act awful on it. I usually have my husband walking Scout (who insists on being in front of Pippa at all times) and I walk wild child Pippa, who can walk like an angel but unpredictably stop and refuse to go until she sniffs whatever caught her attention. I almost think bigger dogs are easier to walk because they are closer to you in height. These little dogs are really hard to control way down there..
