The keyword is "contact" and without that, teaching your dog will be very difficult.

Is there not any training class in your area where you can some help? It really doesnt take long to teach a dog to walk nicely on lead
I actually agree. I have 3 different harnesses but I was told at puppy school that they like the dogs to wear collars to train. So, for a few days, I tried with the collar. He actually prefered it. When on the harness, Oscar refused to budge! He went for his first walk today on a collar and didn't pull too much.
