**em**:
not 4x4 related but just wondered if any of you guys could help. i have a 14 month old rottweiler dog and he is becoming a nightmare the worst problem is on the lead he constantly pulls and then will just go without any warning unfortunately i have had an injury to my shoulders so i need this problem sorting especially with the bad press. i have tried alsorts even had a dog trainer out but still not succeeding please any help

discowoman:
get a HALTI..fixes to collar and around nose so if they pull, it turns their head..works on our 3 y/o Rotty bitch.
OH and a harness too!!!!

ben_haynes:
what coller / harness do you have

our rottie X GSD used to do it until we got her a Halti (i think??) http://www.companyofanimals.co.uk/halti.php

now she has calmed down and walks off the lead but still has mental times and has only been like it for 6 monts and is 5 years old

Good Luck and have many years Enjoyment

Mine did the same 'get a halti, as suggested but also walk the dog with the lead held across the front of you and hold a small piece of sandwich meat or dog treat in the hand furthest away from the dog, it should encourage the dog to walk at the side of you

thanks for replies. at the moment he has the halti harness on.
i have tried choker chain and it does not bother him
the halti that goes on the face he doesn't feel as strong on but he is still constantly fighting it and if he tries to go on that if he doesn't succeed the first time he will just keep backing up and trying again he has managed to snap the halti hes that strong
i have tried a spray bottle every time he went in front of me sprayed him that didn't work
i tried the changing direction when he pulls but he just spins back round and goes or stands firm and wont turn
also tried clicker training he picks these things up very quickly and very well hes a very clever dog when he wants to be but the clicker doesn't work as soon as he wants to do something else food isn't interesting enough
distraction techniques don't work lol

thanks andy will try it but i don't think the food will keep him interested it didn't with clicker training.

this is why im running out of ideas
