To stop your dog from pulling on a leash, consistent training and patience are key. Start by teaching your dog basic leash manners. Use a front-clip harness or a head halter to reduce pulling. When your dog pulls, stop walking and wait for them to return to your side. Reward and praise them when they do so. Maintain a relaxed grip on the leash, as tension can encourage pulling. Gradually increase the distance you can walk without your dog pulling, rewarding them for good behaviour.
Additionally, consider incorporating obedience commands like “heel” or “leave it” during walks, reinforcing these commands with treats and praise. Consistent training, positive reinforcement, and patience are essential in teaching your dog not to pull on the leash. If you’re struggling, consider seeking guidance from a professional dog trainer for personalized advice and support.
