So I just got my first shiba in June, (he’s almost 5 months now) and we are working on walking. As in trying to get him to get up and walk during a walk around the lake. 🙂 at first I tried Loring him with a treat and he began walking but now he’s not interested in the treats anymore. When I pick him up and get him to walk he’ll walk for a bit but then start biting my legs because he doesn’t want to walk. And I know he’s not tired because he starts doing it a quarter of a mile into the walk. What is the best way to correct this?

We have been working with him since we got him at 8 weeks. He is not calming down. Still crazy chasing anything that moves,trucks, school buses, wild life other dogs and anything that moves, I’m wondering what can we do to help calm him down? HEIP us

I read this and the one on walking with your dog. Great options to try.

I cannot walk my 8 week doxie yet since she is not fully vaccinated. We are practicing in my house and in our small backyard and driveway.

The issue that I am having is that when tension is put on the leash…either she is not following or pulling ahead…she turns into a bucking bronco that yelps terribly. Basically, I stand still until she calms then reward for any slack in the leash. I don’t think this is really working though and it is not pleasant to watch!

Should I try an alternative to helping her walk with me?

Generally, she’s very well behaved on walks. I never have an issue with her pulling on the leash, usually, shes trailing behind and doesn’t want to speed up. Lately, shes been stopping to roll around in the grass/mud and doesn’t want to move. Why is she doing this? How can I push her to concentrate on walking?

I help my dogs with fear/anxiety issues by doing desensitization training. This is best done under the direction of a good professional trainer who understands conditioning and systematic desensitization principles.

But I still can’t get him to walk on the leash. He is 5months old and we live in NYC were traffic is always crazy. Whenever we go on walks I spend most of my time dragging him down the street because he is afraid of everything. He’s afraid of the cars, bus, trucks and chairs. He is always ready to run. I take him to the dog parks for 2plus hours thinking that would help with the leash pulling. Most of the time it makes it worse.

Please HELP ME.
