I like this article, there are easy to follow instructions for teaching your pup how to walk correctly and end the undesirable pulling behavior. The only thing I would add is that of course I am a strong believer in the easy walk which is a harness that fastens the leash on their chest instead of the center of their back. This is the number one recommended tool by veterinarian behaviorists. Also, even though I agree that your dog is not trying to dominate you by pulling on the leash, teaching him to walk correctly and accept you as the leader does effectively change your social position with him and also teaches that all important self control that factors into SO many other situations. The benefits are MANY: please toss that flexi-leash, choke chain, prong collar, sled dog harness, etc. Give the proper tool and techniques a try and experience a more rewarding relationship with your furry friend built on mutual respect and proper communication. https://positively/dog-behavior/basic-cues/loose-leash-walking/
