[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  22:35, this is exactly the point I want to get to!  I know she wants and needs exercise, but it's getting to the point where I don't even want to take her out if I have the stroller (but she gets a much shorter walk if I wait and walk her after dark when my kid is asleep).

What kind of leash did you use?  I find our leash to be really painful for me to hold and painful when the dog pulls.  Ours is more or less like this (but with a loop for your hand on the end): http://www.amazon.com/Rogz-Utility-4-Inch-Reflective-Fanbelt/dp/B002DXAPE8/ref=sr_1_12?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1423109282&sr=1-12

We had a retractable leash with our old dog but got rid of it after he passed away.  He never pulled much, so it was totally fine to use with him.  I remember that it was better for keeping him on a short leash, though (which helped with the stroller, since he didn't pull but found it confusing to walk with a stroller).  I'd rather not use that with our new dog because she pulls so much, but maybe it would be better?

She's unfortunately very low to the ground (part bassett), but has all the strength of a big dog, so she has incredible strength and balance![/quote]
