I had the same problem with my aussie pup.
BEFORE you try any of those give this method a try:

I had tried like 5 other methods and NONE worked. this one does for me atleast.
I dont like head collars or cesars, a good old fashion buckle collar and 4 foot leash is all you need.
I highly recomend this! but i dont use a clicker.
Four Dog Training Tools That You Must Use
- I think Victoria from It's Me or the Dog has the best techniques and she demonstrates some collars and leads that work and are humane. Search youtube or animal planet and see if you can watch some of her episodes.
I had a dog that pulled a lot and just turning around everytime he pulled got him to stop. It took a long time so you have to be patient. - I use a Halti for my Beagle.
He is 4 years old now and we have used it since he was a puppy.
It works exceptionally well and yes its a little expensive but worth your time and effort.
It works by cinching across the chest of the dog when he pulls on the lead. It is uncomfortable but does not hurt the dog in anyway.
Our dog was never bothered by the halti at all but it will take a little getting used to and that is true of any device you use.
Whats cool is its designed to go across the chest but as he has learnt not to pull we now reverse it so it sits across his back and that saves strain on his neck which is where most collars cause harm.
I also tried one of those head collars that are designed to pull the dogs head to one side whan he resists the lead, Not recommended in my opinion. I did not like it and neither did my beagle. The lead hooks into a ring right across his nose and as a beagle is a sniffer this was not a good idea. It also had the capability of pinching across his nose which over time woud have caused him pain.
In my opinion the Halti is the way to go
