    Leash walking question

    I have a question about leash walking - I was taught in my owner obedience, whoops, I mean dog obedience class, that it is ok to let your dog walk in front of you sniff around, etc. as long as you can get them to heel when you want them to. However, I am noticing that some people believe that the dog should NEVER walk in front of you because it is a dominance issue. How important do you think this is? I am a little confused about what is best.
    I have a one year old retriever mix who is generally pretty submissive and very good with her heel, etc.
