I have been to puppy class where I was growled at for suggesting the use of a head halti etc. They are of the same opinion as some of you, that I should always walk them 1 on 1. This is also very easy for my class mates to say, as the next biggest dog in the group to mine is a spaniel.
However I went back to using the head halti and noticed an immediate difference this time. It was pleasure to walk both my girls togather, they were responsive and controlled. Any correction on my part was a tweak of my finger on the lead, and good behaviour was resumed. Think I also forgot that dogs dont do human - and I shou;dnt expect them to understand sentences.
We are now practicing back to basics, with some success.

So thanks to all of you, who spared some of their valuable time to advise me.
