When I first got her it was the dead of winter and she couldn't take the cold. I enjoy the outdoors (walk, jog, bike) and would like for her to join me to keep me company but she is constantly chasing and barking at everyone or thing that comes past along with pulling on me. I don't want to hurt her or let her get hurt by another dog or person on a bike. Please help.

i use heal, u shout heal if she doesnt slow down stop in the middle of the street and yell heel again and tug the leed (not 2 hard) also inside the home you can use treats keep them by your side and put one in your hand to lead him where you want him 2 go. sort of pointing with a treat in ya hand, if he stands next to your hand and starts to move with you when you walk, you may be able to train him to walk off lead next to you.
also try teaching him, bed, come here, bad dog and dont pee in the house first.

This is what worked for me...The collar is very important. I started with a harness around the chest. I learned it is instinctive for a dog to pull like a sled dog when you use a harness. I now use a show lead very much like a choke chain design, but its nylon or silk rope. It wears just behind the ears high on the neck. When training this is a hard area for a dog to pull, it doesn't hurt at all. The second most important thing is you need to walk out your door first. No matter how many times you need to repeat the step out, you should be first. Next when your dog gets distracted pull towards you not back, two quick times and use a corrective sound not their name. Last If they pass you stop say heal or use your own word, get back in position and you take the first step, no matter how many times you need to stop, you need to take the first step. You have to do all of this with patience... LOL Good Luck!

She's being a average dog. Unless your older puppy is harming the doggy, go away the puppy by myself to manage the doggy in his/her possess manner. Young doggies, like yours. are given plenty of leeway by way of grownup puppies but when the doggy is going to some distance or whilst it is older, your grownup puppy will proper it. And the puppy is aware of find out how to proper a dog and whilst to proper it larger than you or I do. As some distance because it nipping you, whilst it does, growl "no chew" (use a low quiet voice) after which pay surely no concentration to the doggy for a couple of seconds. Then present her an right bite toy and compliment her for chewing on that. I love to keep the bite toys for dogs to bite. That tells the doggy that the toys belong to me (I'm the Alpha). If the "growl" does not paintings, then provide the doggy a scruff shake whilst telling it no chew in that low, growly voice. The scruff shake will have to be company however now not too rough. Remember this can be a child. If you're kenneling her to be able to loosen up it is quality but when you're doing so considering that that is robust subject, it isn't. Puppies don't comprehend the thought of time outs. As some distance as your son is going, educate him to mention ouch in a prime-pitched voice after which flip his again and thoroughly forget about the dog for a couple of seconds if it nips him. It'll normally occur as dogs do nip. But this degree would possibly not be ceaselessly.

I have a pitbull puppy what i do when he pulls is pop the leash (give it a lil tug and say AAATTT!!!!) If that doesnt work try the prong collar, this works if you use it right! If shes younger try it on a reg collar. just tug it! they will get the hint after a while. I also am in the process of training my puppy to sit when i stop walking. that may help you too!
