Pulling
What do you use to deter pulling? There are lots of things on the market but which ones actually work?

Re: Pulling
dogmatic or indie dog head collar, but what ever you use you need to work on the training as well.

Re: Pulling
Harnesses do help but definitely work on training, this may help

Vinnie has a figure of 8 easy leader type.
But as said training is still needed, Vinnie walks to heal anyway.

Re: Pulling
We don't use anything, the stop start method with training worked for us

Re: Pulling
We have used a Canny Collar and a Halti with Rocky and both have worked, it's all down to training though really.

Re: Pulling
I've never used anything other than a normal collar (and years ago a check chain) and good, consistent training.

Re: Pulling
Training is what I used with Pixee, but then she was good on the lead when we picked her up from the blue cross, so I make sure every now and then, we walk on footpaths so she doesnt start any pulling to keep it up.
