Hey, as your dog is a bit older and already knows how to walk on the lead, It sounds like he is just being stubborn! Lol
With a bully, letting him get his own way could lead to bigger problems, thinking he's the boss..
Try a different collar, or harness. And when he stops just give him a tug towards you giving the command you use (come or heel or whatever). Any step he does take (even if its only one) give him heaps of praise.
