Pulling on the Lead Workshop (One hour)
Are you tired of having sore arms or worse still, being pulled over?
All dogs need to be on a lead at various times, daily walks, trips to the vets, groomers etc. Groomers and vets are necessary for obvious reasons, but daily walks are necessary too because dogs that don't experience these things can be under-socialized which often leads to behavioural problems. Some dogs continue to pull because it becomes a rewarding experience.
For example:
- He pulls to get to the car.
- He pulls to get to greet another other dog in the street, or class.
- He pulls you to the lady across the street and she tells him how lovely he is even though now, he is not JUST pulling, but is also jumping up with his muddy paws, to which she replies, "it's ok, I don't mind!"
What gets rewarded gets repeated!
Both you and your dog need to break old habits. Kay9 Services offers a workshop to help improve your dog's 'on-lead' behaviour. Learn how to teach your dog to walk on a loose lead using various kind and humane methods.
Please bring a good standard lead. No chain leads and no flexi leads please!!
