| its so frustrating isnt it when they forge ahead and you want them to walk nicely  ... if only they came with brakes lol.... you will get there if you keep up with it  .... _________________  ~The dog is a gentleman! I hope to go to his heaven, not man's~ |

| i would get a slip lead hun make sure its on correctly making a P shape not a 9 put it high up his neck on the weakest point of the dogs neck. this gives you lots more control as soon as he goes to pull a sharp and short correction to the side not upwards will stop him in his tracks.
make sure the lead is short *not tight* so he cant criss cross and go everywhere, keep him on one side only, dont let him get out through the door b4 you either.
everything you do in the house will have a impact on him outside also, teach him he gets nothing unless he is calm if hes jumping round like a loon correct him or ignore him. dont over fuss him upon greeting him, if he comes over for a stroke ignore him you do nothing on his terms.
do you watch cesar millan hun? hes a great guy to watch x |

| I will try with the slip lead tomo i do watch cesar when i can, In the house Zeus is so calm its unreal no jumping or demanding a real sweetie going out of the door no prob if i ask him to stand,wait or sit he will until he's out on the path then all hell breaks loose. Off lead recall WHEN he comes he will do the same sit.stand, down. Then its whey up in the air do what i want run,play hide ect mind you he's not even 2 yet so theres plenty of time i hope. :cccc: |

| absolutely hun, hes still young  ... fred was the same... great in the house until he got out the gate, then he forged ahead no matter what lol.... all methods work differently for different people... i was fortunate enough to have lots of help from the breeders i had fred from, hes a dog trainer, zep the dogfather.... _________________  ~The dog is a gentleman!
