Why Does Your Dog Pull? Take the 2-Minute Walk Test.
Most owners get told it's a training problem. For most dogs, it isn't.
Pulling, lunging, the choking sound, getting dragged down the block...
It feels like your dog just won't listen.
But the real reason usually has little to do with discipline. It has almost everything to do with where the leash connects to your dog's body.
This quick assessment looks at your dog, your walks, and what you've already tried. At the end you'll get a straight read on why your dog pulls, and the simplest fix for your dog.
