How to put a leash on the dog

For a start, put on a puppy collar. Most dogs get used to the new sensations pretty quickly – after a few days your pet will cease to notice it. If the dog persists in trying to get rid of the new clothes, examine the collar. It can RUB the animal's neck, or button up too tightly. Adjust the degree of tension or adjust the collar for a more comfortable model.

When the dog gets used to the collar, comes the turn of the leash. Select the appropriate model with a sturdy carabiner, securely fixed on the collar. Leash length should allow the dog to move a long distance.

Let the dog sniff the leash. Attach it to the collar and take the dog for a walk. For a start, then release it to run freely. The leash should not restrict the movement of the dog. For the first walk was a half hour.

It is important that the leash in conscious dogs was associated exclusively with positive emotions. Donning and removing it, give the dog a treat. The result is a smart pet will quickly associate delicious things, the long-awaited walk and the leash together and will not resist fees.

If the dog refuses to walk on a leash, whines and lies down, don't yell at her or try to punish. Give the dog a treat, encouraging him to get up and take a few steps. You can throw the ball forward and run after him with the pet. Gradually the dog will understand that life on the leash is not so bad.

When the dog gets used to walking on a leash, start to teach him how to discipline. Animal living in the city, should understand the command "Next" and quietly walk beside the owner on a short leash. If you gave the command, be consistent. Hold the dog, not allowing it to run. However, be attentive to her needs – do not pull or yank the dog if he decided to stay on urgent business. Wait pet, and continue.
