Hello everyone,
My name is Aayden, I'm 23 and from Southern Michigan. I've had my own dog since I was 10 years old and have experience with dogs as tiny as a chihuahua to as big as a Saint Bernard but today I've taken on a new challenge.
Someone nearby me had to re-home their Great Pyrenees and while I knew these were extremely independent dogs I had no idea what I was getting myself into until she got home. She loves to play, cuddle, she gets along great with the other dogs and my daughter but she has a big problem - Leashes. She will run when you pull out a leash and growl when you put it on her. Once on she stops fussing but will not move, she lays down and refuses to go anywhere.
Treats don't work including raw meat, she won't move as long as the leash is on. She loves her new toys but not even those work...I've tried all sorts of different things..this dog just has NEVER been leashed trained. At 1 1/2 years of age she is 130 lbs and unmoveable...we don't have a fenced in yard which makes it hard to get her out to use the bathroom...I'm at a loss. This is the most stubborn dog I've EVER had in my care...
