Suggestions on How To Stop Your Dog from Pulling

Dogs will learn to associate different tones of voice with different situations; therefore commands should be given in a short,crisp voice. Short commands are preferred. Praise should be given in a soft tone-maybe even whisper-so that the dog can differentiate the command from the praise. Use the same commands over and over during training. The command "no" should be given in a commanding, sharp tone of voice.
I have found personally that "The Gentle Leader" -a head halter- worked best for trying to teach Laila not to pull. Head halters are the best way to stop a persistant puller. Most dogs will resist it but will adapt quickly as they come to associate it with treats and walks. Head halters should not be used on puppies-only strong and determined adult pullers! Once the dog learns that the halter remains loose if he or she doesn't pull then they will walk at your side instead of walking ahead and causing the halter to become tight.
This has definately helped me with stopping Laila from pulling me around the neighborhood.

Dog Training-Laila and Me

Laila is a yellow Labrador Retriever. We have had her since the age of 2 and I think she will be a puppy forever. Labs have easygoing temperaments and this makes them suitable for all types of tasks from family pet- to assistance dog- to police search and rescue. Whether you want a loyal friend to hang around with or a faithful worker the lab is an ideal breed for you.
Labs can learn many different words and commands and aren't just limited to basic obedience commands. Your lab will pick up on certain words like
walk,treat, out, and bed.
Don't yell and scream when your lab does something wrong - this will just scare him/her and make them afraid of you.
Spend 5-10 minutes a day practicing commands with your dog.
Always reward good behavior.
It is easier to teach good habits than to unlearn bad ones-don't allow your dog to learn bad behavior by PREVENTING it!
