Hey everyone. Today was a rough day walking my two dogs. I have a 3 year old Akita chow named willow who is generally very calm and is leash trained and I have a 7 month mutt named jasper who only walks okay when he walks by himself. Up until a couple of days ago jasper would walk past a dog and be calm and cordial. Today as I was walking outside of my house while walking the both of them he yanked me so hard I fell into the grass and scraped my leg very bad because the neighbors off leash chihuahua came running up to us and barking at us (why are chihuahuas such assholes). It was very embarrassing and this is not a behavior I am okay with. On the rest of the walk he also proceeded to yank me at any dog he saw and I mean really yank me, he’s seven months but VERY strong, he yanks so hard all while whining like crazy it sounds like he’s being abused. I dont know what to do can someone give me training tips? I’ve seen many ways to go about it and have decided I can’t walk them together for now as i swear he is ten times worse than when he’s by himself. (Ps he also does this if he sees a cat it’s absurd)
