getting puppy to walk on lead
by RazzTa Fri Jan 24 2014, 00:17
How do I get my puppy to walk on a lead, Boss absolutely hates the lead. As soon as I put the lead on he refuses to walk with me or my partner how do I get him to walk with me?

You could try getting a very light weight lead and just pop it on while puppy is walking around the home, just let it trail behind, this way Boss will get used to it being there before going out for walks.

Maybe take a favorite toy with you or use food!

Clip it on to him and then try and persuade him to walk towards you while offering some super tasty treats 
Bane was scared of his lead at first but when we started ignoring that it was on him and distracted him with treats and toys he started to ignore it too
