Hi Gary

I have just got a 15 month sib husky (we think she is a cross with a German Shepherd), from Bath Cats and Dogs home, we got her 2 weeks ago. Tala pulls like mad too - most of the time. Its very wearing, I too am looking for advice. I am 6ft, and she walks pretty fast at standard, and I also walk quite quick, but dont keep up with her pace.

The kennels had a harness for her, which we used a few times on walks with her, and to be honest she pulled as much, if not more on the harness, so I'm not sure that would have any benefit.

I think she needs to run about, but I cant let her off the lead..... I'm looking for a football pitch sized fenced garden for her to exercise in, ha ha - like they exist!!

Sorry I cant offer any help, but i am reading the replies in eager anticipation of a miracle 'cure'
