Learn To Stop Leash Pulling Part 1

There are two parts to this training: Part one deals with how to get your pit bull to stay next to you when walking and what to do when he pulls. Part two looks at why your pit bull pulls and how to get him to stop.

This is part one and I will also be posting part two also.

Part one has two steps. In part one  step one you will get your pit bull used to walking on a leash and staying beside you when you are walking.

In step two we will be dealing with pulling. Never walk your dog when there is tension on the leash as this may teach your pit bull to pull you forward. When walking your pit bull time there is tension on the leash change directions, encourage him to follow you, the second he does click and offer him food when you catches up.

In the beginning you may not be able to take three steps before having to turn and there will be frequent turning. Think of this every time your pit bull pulls and you have to turn it is an opportunity to teach him not to pull in the future.
