Good idea, poor execution

[wolf_Q]

Oh I'll lend you Nebo, he'll pull you for sure. He knows HOW to heel, but so far he'll only do that when there's not anything interesting around (people and dogs) otherwise he puts on his "husky selective hearing."

Kay has a good idea, I have a bikerdog (www.bikerdog.com) and it works great. Nebo would very likely run off as well and he's never managed to escape it. I do have a couple of added measures...and no safety release...I figure we'd be better off crashing than him taking off, so I just don't go very fast. I don't get much exercise with it that way, but it wears him out much faster than a walk.

I can't belive that I missed that I was offered a chance to play with Adele and Nebo? How could I say no to that Actually, I know why it would be a bad idea, because I'd never want to give either one back, lol.

The biggest thing that helped with with Frankie was a Gentle Leader® easy walk harness . Frankie will not tolerate a head harness at all, she goes straight insane. The easy pull harness has become her regular walk harness and she doesn't mind one bit, but she stopped pulling after a few times using it. I might have gotten lucky, who knows.

Well I'm sure Nebo would love to play with you but you'd definitely have to give him back.

I'm going to have to look into that harness.....Nebo has a "halti" head harness and he goes crazy with that thing on, so I stopped using it a long time ago. I'll check my work tomorrow to see if they sell it, thanks for the tip.
