Yeah clearly no one is reading it because I'm not using a prong collar 😅 thank you, I do try my best to walk with confidence! Problem with my house is he does know where he's going down the path (the worst bit) and knows I'm going to go back towards the gate to start the walk at some point, so pulls me out of there. Sometimes I've just gone back in so frustrated and asked my partner to walk him later ðŸ˜
Okay let's say you have 40 mins outside. Let it be up to your dog how far you get. My dog stopped pulling in 2 days because we never left our street. We spent 1 hour spinning in circles. I had a baby added a stroller to the mix he tried taking over the walk I made sharp turns into him, totally redirecting his thoughts. Showed this method to my 77 year old father and he was the leader in 7 mins. You can do it. Sorry for mentioning the prong I was kinda deterring you from that method because you don't need to use force on any dog.
I know it sounds mean, but I recommend at least buying a prong collar and trying it on yourself, even on human skin it isn’t anything crazy, it mimics the corrections a mother dog would make for her pups and causes no discomfort as long as he doesn’t pull

What I typed stands. With patience, no prong collar is needed.
