Teaching your dog to walk on a loose leash

Teaching your dog to walk on a loose leash can be a challenging task. It requires patience and consistency. Start by using a sturdy leash and collar or harness. Begin walking with your dog in a quiet, distraction-free area. Hold the leash loosely, without tension. Encourage your dog to walk beside you by using treats or praise. Reward your dog for staying by your side. If your dog pulls on the leash, stop walking and wait for them to come back to your side. Repeat this process until your dog learns to walk without pulling. Practice walking on a loose leash regularly. Be consistent with your training and soon your dog will master walking on a loose leash. Remember, it takes time and effort to train your dog, so be patient. .
