I am going to try one of these leads, but not sure which one will work best on my boy! Should I go for a Halti Head Collar or a Gentle Leader one? Have any of you used either of these and did they work? thanks folks.

to be honest with you at the moment I think he is too young for one of those try aversion training first - when he pulls you turn and go in the opposite direction he should follow again when he pulls again turn - you tend to look a bit of a fool but he will learn that when he pulls you change the direction in which he is going in all the time you are doing this use your chosen word as in heel or close

it does work believe me and is how we train our youngsters

Hi thanks will try that, i have tried standing still whilst he pulls, but find it a bit cruel. hehe. he will be going to puppy training classes also, and then obedience and hopefully agillity when he is older!
