Guest jt750 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 You could try putting the lead on and leaving it on so he gets used to it being there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil r 1,860 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 try getting someone to stand on the other side of the room with a treat and let him drag the lead over to them then do it again but walk at the side of it holding the lead and reward it . dont do it for to long though or the dog will get bored . once it will walk to someone across the room try it in the yard and then just put some treats in your pocket and try it outside , every now and again stop and give it a treat . Thats how i did mine , he was a nightmare when i tried him at first but it didnt take long once i started rewading him . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
T78 4 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 leave a collar on the dog all the time(for now)let it get used to the feeling of it round its neck. put the dog on the lead and have a treat in your other hand,let the dog know you've got it and walk slowly off.if he puts the anchors on,hold the treat close to his face and move away again.usually only takes 2 or 3 15 min sessions of this to give them the idea.

Wild_and_Irish 11 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 I just drag the dog until it cops on, never had any problems Quote Link to post Share on other sites
