Page 12: Using The Sidewalker
USING THE SIDEWALKER Proper Placement of the SideWalker The collar strap should be slightly loose so the SideWalker can rotate on the dog's neck. As you walk with the dog, the SideWalker must rotate to a position opposite the direction of the leash pull. For example, if the dog is on your left, the Side Walker should rotate to the left side of the dog’s neck. - Page 13 USING THE SIDEWALKER Traditional Leash Training The sensation from the collar combined with leash pressure you initiate will help guide the dog into the desired position. Sometimes you will initiate the leash pressure to signal the dog to return to the proper walking position, and sometimes the dog will self-correct his pulling behavior.
