    When I was living with my parents and had Willy (also after I had to give him to them) it went like this:

    Trix: She used to strain and yank but I got her to chill out and just walk either in front or on the side at a nice pace.

    Willy: Walks ahead at a normal pace. He used to do the same things with Trix but I got him to stop it, eventually.

    Little Dog: Doesn't use a leash. She was abused and starts cowering at the very sight of a leash. She likes to walk along side or a tad ahead. She listens very well so nobody has a problem with this.

    lol yeesh way to make me feel bad! Perky, Ripley, and Blair belong to my mom, she does not walk them, they get ALL of their exersize through off leash runs and dogsports. Misty pulls, in places she knows well, she has an absolute perfect heel, both on and off the leash. however in places that continually change or she has not been before, forget it, NOTHING will get her attention, I manage to control her with a haltie but it only works if she does not try to hard, because if she REALLY wants ahead she turnes to face me and pulls backwards as hard as she can till the muzzle part comes off then turnes around and pulls forward. with years of haltie training she is getting a teeny bit better, she someone handled her now and not before they would never believe that she used to be worse lol

    Snowy is a puller. The only time she doesn't pull is when she is tired or if I have a treat on my hand

    thanks k9krazee for the signature!
