Sensible owners book a training course with their puppy, even if they’ve had dogs before, because it’s SO much easier to prevent problems than to deal with them once they’ve developed.

Whether from poor socialisation or a previous bad experience, many dogs are worried about other dogs getting too close.
Use our Simply Stop Pulling course to teach your dog to walk nicely so you can enjoy some wonderful walkies together.
It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of something new, especially if it fits with a long-standing dream.
And if an offer is really good then it’s worth taking seriously.
If your dog gets hyper, you need to help your pooch to control herself better and be calmer – a Princess Grace instead of a Judy Greer
My next tip to help stop your dog pulling is very simple – STOP as soon as your dog pulls and START only when the lead is loose.
Simple, but not easy.
When your dog pulls, it’s a natural reaction for you to pull back – so your dog pulls harder – so you pull harder back – and it becomes a self-perpetuating cycle.
The simplest way to stop your dog pulling is to use something he loves to teach him how to walk nicely beside you. For most dogs – and certainly for a Labrador like Rusty – the easy way is to use food.
Your dog pulls because it works. Pulling gets him to where he wants to go faster. He’ll know all your routines, so he’ll recognise exactly where you’re going on today’s walk – and he’ll pull to get there
It’s one of the sweetest thing dogs do – tilt their head when we talk to them. Your heart melts every time.
