Training your dog to not pull on the leash One of the most common problems people have with their dogs is pulling on the leash.
There are many reasons why this can occur, and quite often it is nothing more than excitement on the dogs part. If this is the case, allowing the dog a few minutes to simmer down before taking it on his/her walk can often stop it.

All dogs need to accept the restraints of a leash and this can be hard for some puppies. If your Golden is frightened by the leash as a puppy, he may resent the leash for the rest of his life. Therefore you may want to introduce the leash in a non-threatening manner.

You’ll need to first properly fit a pinch collar and get a leather 6 foot leash. If you feel your dog is a very “soft temperamented” dog, then you can use a regular training collar, or sometimes even a flat leather buckle collar. But in most cases when people have trouble with their dog pulling on the leash, the proper use of a pinch collar is the easiest and most humane way of going about fixing the problem.

I have a 5 1/2 month old Bloodhound. I use a pinch collar. Otis wears the collar all the time when I am with him. Otis is normally tied to my chair on a 10 foot lead in the living room, as not to get into trouble. After being outside and it’s time to be tied up again, I call him and he thinks that I will be correcting him and runs the other direction.

Getting your dog to walk on a loose leash is easy. However, sometimes your dog–especially if he’s a young or adolescent dog–will still instist on walking slightly in front of you. He’s
not pulling on the leash… he’s just not walking along side you, in the heel position. (The heel position means that his right leg is aligned with your left leg, and his toes and your toes line up,
when you stop).
