I can not get my shih tzu to walk on a leash for anything. we will try to make a game out of it we tried everything we could think of but we can’t get him to walk he plants all four and if we give him a little tug he acts like we are killing him any advice please.

hi. are you using a collar or harness? I found with my yorkie poo that a harness worked best. If you have not tried this yet. it is best to try to get him to follow you with slack in the leash offering some kind of treat when he responds favorably. it will take time and patience, my dog is 9 months old and still occasionally still fights it. running in front of him in a game of chase will sometimes work. good luck.

hi,


When you first put a leash and collar on your puppy, she probably resisted and maybe even sat and refused to budge. Later, as she got used to the leash, she may have started pulling, stopping, or turning suddenly. All dogs need lessons in good leash behavior. They are not instantly instilled with these skills just because you put a collar and leash on them.


here are some guidelines:
