What's this?

Better training is the only thing that will help. But for some dogs it


just never sinks in. My dog was trained fairly well and does great inside. But outside she gets overstimulated, too many noises, smells, other people/dogs, etc and all that training goes right out the window. We use a Ruffwear harness, it doesn't help with the pulling but at least she won't choke herself to death.

  Dog harnesses/collars to prevent pulling? -- JoesterVT 01/05/2021 10:19AM
  Easy Walk Dog Harness. Works great. As below, the leash hooks at chest -- reestuart 01/05/2021 11:46AM
  As said below, better training. When Charley pulls stop. Don't move again -- RhinoVT 01/05/2021 11:29AM
  Get a longer leash... -- Burruss Writer 01/05/2021 11:23AM
  A prong collar worked wonders with my former Brittany mix -- Trogdor 01/05/2021 11:09AM
  We have Julius K-9 harness/vests that are very effective -- PhotoHokieNC 01/05/2021 11:07AM

  He's 100% correct. Leash walks are the best way to train a dog. -- bluehokie 01/05/2021 11:44AM
  IIRC, he uses a choke type collar -- JoesterVT 01/05/2021 10:47AM

  The harness just allows them to pull against the leash more. -- vthokieq 01/05/2021 10:22AM
  My wife tried that with me, it didn't work. ** -- HokieGator 01/05/2021 12:44PM
  My son bought the harness with the leash connection hook -- hokie-c 01/05/2021 10:40AM
  Same concept as the gentle leader..body follows the head ** -- Vienna_Hokie 01/05/2021 12:26PM
  Yep. This is what we do. ** -- GFallsFan 01/05/2021 11:11AM
