Teach Your Dog Loose Leash Walking

A well trained dog is a joy to own. Training a dog to walk on your left side with his head even with your knee while you hold the leash loosely is a professional skill termed: "Heel."

Training a puppy to walk politely on a loose leash without pulling can be a little more relaxed. Your goal is to train the puppy to walk politely on a loose leash without pulling. Instead of using the word "heel," your training command can be:

• let's go or
• forward

The goal is to create a routine of easy walking together.

Choose your favorite command word before starting to train, and be sure to use the same command consistently. Decide which side you prefer your puppy or dog to walk on, the left or the right; this decision is completely up to you. The main thing is to remain consistent in all you do.

Training begins:

1. Be sure your puppy is comfortable wearing the leash. Most dogs react to a leash as if it feels a little strange and some will try to remove the leash or bite at it. This is a normal reaction. Just imagine someone putting a collar and leash around your neck for the first time. You probably would tug at it trying to remove it because the new gear is a foreign object. Don't give in to the dog's persistence to remove his leash.
2. Give your puppy or dog a treat when he or she accepts the leash without resistance.
3. Stand next to your pet with the leash in a loose loop and give him several treats in a row for standing or sitting next to your leg. Of course, you should NOT treat if the pet objects to this step. Only give treats for the behavior you desire.
4. Take one step forward and encourage the pet to follow by giving another treat as he or she catches up with you.
5. Continue giving treats at the level of your knee or hip as you walk forward.
6. When the pet runs in front of you, turn in the opposite direction, call out his name, reward the pet with treats when he comes to you.
7. Continue on. Begin giving treats spaced out like from every step to every other step, then every third step and so on.
8. With enough repetition your pet should start to walk happily at your side whenever on the leash.
9. Allow the pet to explore his immediate environment of flowers, grass, etc. while on your walks. After they sniff the flowers on the side of street or whatever it is took their interest, give them the command, "Let's Go! Use a very happy voice as you give this command and reward them with treats for coming back into position and walking with you.

Good behavior should be rewarded, but often training treats are empty-calorie treats with no nutritive value and include undesirable ingredients. At Life's Abundance, we strongly believe that you should only feed treats that can help to support overall health.
