It seems to be working! but she has her moments, to say i only got her yesterday, and she point blank refused to let the other people walk her on a lead, i dont think its going too badly!! but im trying to train her to play off the lead, and come back to me, as we live on a farm and have lots of fields for her to play in!

Are you using a collar or a harness? I just ordered an easy walk harness from ebay.
