Dog Health Questions: How can I get my dog to behave when out on a walk?

I can get my dog to do anything in the house. She is the perfect dog. she will sit, stay, come, roll over and more. She is the best dog ever until you take her out.

As soon as you pick up her lead she turns into a completely different dog. She pulls so much it hurts you arm. It is like she is in a frenzy. She wont pay attention to you and its like your not there. If you come across another dog or even just a person she will go CRAZY!!

How can I stop this. We have taken her to dog training classes but they are all just in a hallway and she behaves perfectly in them so they don't get to see the true her when on a walk.

I just want to be able to go on a nice walk with her and actually enjoy it instead of seeing it as a chore.

Please help!!!!!!

Dog Training Leads And How To Start Dog Training Products Business?

Recommended Answer:
What you may want to do is get a Halte collar which goes around the face instead of a collar.
What they do is control the dog and helps you both walk alot better.
When you use them it is said where ever the head goes so does the body.
Also what you can do to train her to listen is get her to focus on you and that means call her name and have her look at you. Once she does, give her a treat and say Good Girl. What the treat does is get her interested in you and not in anything else.
But first you need to get the Halte Collar to help in the training process.
They will try to take it off but it will not come off.
Once she is adjusted to the Halte Collar, you can go on walks.
But again, start training her again by having her look at you for treats and once she knows that if she looks at you when you call her, she will understand that a treat will follow.
That is how you start to train. With treats and focusing.
Now when you go on walks I would suggest you ignore her behavior and when she pulls on the leash, you stop do not move and she will not be able to go anywhere no matter how hard she tries.
Take another step and if she pulls stop again.
She will soon learn that she cannot go until you do and make her come back to you with a treat after he looks at you when you call her.
This will take some time as she only knows her way and not the proper way.
The once you go past a dog she goes crazy on walk the other way away from the dog and ignore her behavior. She will soon learn that also.
But it is up to you to teach her and make sure she focuses on you for that special treat.
It will take patience on your part but that's the reason for training.

• You have to show her that you're in charge. Don't let her leave or enter the house before you - she'll think she's dominant if you do. Only let her enter or exit a building AFTER you. If she pulls, hold your ground until she doesn't pull anymore. Check out the site below for some more specific tips. good luck. :)


• Try to exercise you dog on a bicycle or roller blades (with a leash) before you walk her on a leash. Once this excess energy is drained, the dog can focus on what you are telling it to do. Check out Cesar and Victoria on the web for more tips. Get a new dog trainer that will take your dog outside.


• Say ttttttssssssss! And grab her neck gently and say that!
