How to stop leash pulling in 5 minutes DIY?

To make sure you’re safe from being pulled over, it’s important to teach them to walk calmly. One of the most common reasons dogs pull on their lead is because they’ve learned that’s how they get to move forward. Whenever your dog pulls, taking just one step with them gives a clear signal that pulling works. Stop walking when the lead starts to tighten, teach your dog that walking next to you with a loose lead means they get to move forward – and pulling means they don’t. The second the lead starts to tighten, stop walking, stand still, keep quiet and don’t move forward again until the lead is slack. Reward your dog when they are by your side, you need to teach your dog that being near you pays off. Starting in your home or garden where it’s calmer, reward your dog for sitting or standing by your side. Consistency is key, be consistent with your training each time you go out with your dog.
