Setting Boundaries and Using Calm Praise

Graeme Hall tackles dogs that pull on the lead. He explains his ‘invisible box’ technique, which helps teach your dog to walk to heel, as well as how to execute the perfect ‘lead flick’. He also hears from an owner whose retriever is petrified of traffic, and talks her through how to desensitise the dog to the noise so they can enjoy walks together. Do you have a question for The Dogfather? Send Graeme a voice note and a video of your pesky pooch to talkingdogs@avalonuk.com.
