On-leash heeling is a complex, multi-part process. The secret is mastering off-leash heeling skills first
Before you attempt on-Leash heeling, make sure you can heel your dog off-leash. Otherwise you’ll use the leach for physical control, and it will become a permanent crutch
By and large, leash-pulling masks the real problem: without a leash you would probably be without a dog. It is indeed a sobering thought to think that most dogs prefer to forge ahead and to sniff the grass or other dogs' rear ends than to walk by their owner's side.
There are some dogs who simply don't want to walk beside owners who keep yanking the leash. However, regardless of why your dog pulls, all dogs need to be trained to walk nicely on leash. If not, they are unlikely to be walked at all.
