Leash Skills Practice Walk

Service Description

Do you have a new dog or puppy who is still learning the ropes? Does your current dog have a habit of pulling you from one sniff spot to the next, or putting on the brakes when you turn back towards home? If you think about it, the leash is kind of a "get along" shirt for two intimately linked species with vastly different priorities. All relationships require compromise and communication. I can help you figure out what your dog needs in order to self-regulate on-leash and work with them to build habits that will keep the both of you from becoming frustrated, instead of enjoying the outdoors together. These walks are a blend of liberty stroll and structured training time. Designed to build connection and progress over time, they work best over multiple sessions. I will send you footage and updates, with plenty of practical information you can apply yourself.
