ALL DOGS ALCHEMY – Loose Leash Walking Part I

Many dog owners want their dog to walk politely without pulling—called Loose Leash, or Polite Walking.  Today’s Alchemy Activity do Jour is the first step of teaching LLW. 

Start by alerting your dog to you by making a kissing sound.  This lets your dog know that you’re working together.   Next, start walking backwards—again to establish that the dog is walking with you.
