Loose-Lead Walking Help
Short sessions. Good fit. Calm routines. Walks can feel easy again.
Why pulling happens
Dogs walk faster than we do. Smells are exciting. If pulling gets them places, it repeats. We change the pattern so walking near you pays well.
- Start in quiet spots. Keep sessions short.
- Reward near your thigh. Take sniff breaks often.
- Use a comfy Y-front harness. Avoid tight neck gear.
What we can help with
We build a simple route plan and a few fun games. You’ll see cleaner starts and smoother walks.
Loose-lead walking FAQs
What gear should I use?
A comfy Y-front harness and a 2–3 m lead help movement and learning.
Do no-pull tools work?
Avoid pain-based tools. A front-clip harness can help while you train kind patterns.
How long does it take?
Many see nicer starts in 2–4 weeks with short, easy sessions.
Can my dog still sniff?
Yes—plan sniff breaks. Use a cue to release to sniff, then back to walking.
