Bec Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Dogs can learn to pull on any tool and whilst they can help us gain some leverage pulling on the leash is a training issue. If it were me I would be doing lots of one on one training and then when he's walking well on the leash on his own transfer it to walking him with your other dog.

imstarvin Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 I have been having the same problem and recently saw someone walking two Dalmatian's, they carried a walking stick and just kept waving it up and down in front of the dogs. It acted like an extension to their arms and seemed to work. I tried it using a light bamboo cane and it works a treat the down side is you get some funny looks from people. I have each dog on a separate lead because it's easier when then need the loo. I still work with each dog individually using treats. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
