The Easy Walk
pulling while walking on a lead.
If your dog forges ahead of you, gently pull the lead to the side to turn the dog
toward you. As he stops pulling, be sure to release the tension on the lead. Use
praise and reward your dog with treats and/or petting.
To slow your dog when he is pulling ahead, apply gentle pressure to the lead,
pulling gently towards one side of the dog. Release the pressure on the lead
when the dog is walking nicely next to you.
Tip
Like all collars, leads, and harnesses, the Easy Walk

recommend finding a qualified trainer who can help you work with
your dog in a positive way.

sure to double-check the fit prior to each use. This will help minimize the risk

• Examine the harness for signs of chewing, fraying, or damage. Do not leave
the harness on your dog unattended.

lead. With a retractable lead, the dog is "rewarded" with additional lead
when he pulls ahead. The goal is for the dog to learn to NOT pull ahead.
In addition, a retractable lead will always apply a slight constant pressure,
teaching your dog it is okay to continue pulling.
