[quote=Anonymous]We use the EZ Walk harness for our 130-pound baby, but like PP's said, the thing that really did the trick was a whole lot of loose-leash walking training from a young age. Our pup walks with the leash hanging in a "J-shape" on the left side and does the same with a flat collar, but I feel better having a harness when I need to pull her back quickly, like when some dummy runs a stop sign. There is no miracle harness that will stop a dog from pulling, but from what I've read, front-hook harnesses are better because the back-hook ones are what they use for sled dogs and they encourage pulling. Good training makes walking safer and more enjoyable for everyone, and honestly the training was just as much for me as for her. Our dog also has a good "leave it" which we use for things like chicken bones on the sidewalk but it also works for ignoring other dogs. She knew the commands pretty well but a training class for adolescents helped her learn to actually follow them around distractions like other dogs.[/quote]
