Great to hear your opinion, I appreciate that!
Concerning your challenge with your girl: the way you try to solve the problem is actually a nice one.
However, this can take even weeks, until you see a significant change. And one walk can soemtimes take one hour longer than normal when training that behavior. I am not sure, how long you have already spent trying it.

Also, you said that you got your dog just recently. It takes a while to have a strong relationship with your dog. This can also cause the problem that your dog doesn`t listen that good.
You may read this article https://www.cosmopolidog.com/en/how-to-bond-with-your-dog/ about how you can improve your relationship.
Finally, I will write an article about your specific topic in a while for sure, so stay curious 😉

Hope I could help you with that!

Cheers, Joschka

this is Chris. I really love your blog and appreciate all the work you put in.

So, I just recently bought myself a puppy labrador and was wondering if you could help me out with a problem I kina can’t resolve by myself…

When I walk the dog, leashed of course, she (it’s a girl) continously pulls the cord and I can’t find a way to stop her doing that… I tried it with standing still until she realises we won’t go any further before she stops pulling… it doesn’t seem to work this way though :/

Hope you can help me out with this…

Cheers,
Chris

P.S. Really looking forward to your next blog posts !
