TERA'S TIPS

 

Is your dog pulling on leash while out on a walk?

I recommend using a gentle leader head collar. The gentle leader applies pressure on the muzzle when the dog pulls. The dog learns that the pressure goes away if they don't pull on the leash. This type of training is called negative reinforcement. If you try the gentle leader and your dog can't handle the pressure on its muzzle I suggest using the sensation harness it works the same way, but it applies pressure to the dog's armpits rather than the muzzle. When purchasing either item ask the salesperson how to fit them correctly on your dog.
