Leash training is essential for both the safety of your dog and others. Start by choosing the right leash and collar or harness. Use positive reinforcement techniques like treats and praise to encourage good behavior. Begin training in a quiet, distraction-free area. Teach your dog to walk beside you without pulling by rewarding them for staying close. If your dog pulls, stop walking and wait for them to calm down before continuing. Consistency is key; practice regularly and make walks a positive experience. Gradually introduce distractions as your dog improves. Remember, patience and consistency are crucial for successful leash training.
