[quote=Anonymous]OP, people all use the tools that they are comfortable with and that work for their dog. A GL doesn’t fix the problem. You’re still going to have to work with your dog. And I don’t want to sound rude, but a 28lb dog should absolutely not be able to pull you down the street. Are you using a flexible lead? If so, that’s the first thing to go in the garbage. A dog will pull itself out of anything if the reward is bigger than what you’re offering. You say your dog ain’t food motivated, but it sounds like they’re walk motivated. So, the answer is STOP IN YOUR TRACKS or turn directly around when they pull. The minute that lead comes to tension do an about face and walk the other way, while saying “whoops” or whatever your training word is. [/quote]
