So you want to take your dog out in public but this is the reaction they have. My poor girl was stressed and way too overstimulated to respond to cues. As soon as I turned the camera off we went back to the car and headed home to come up with a plan.
While the end goal was doing sits and downs in Winners I had to break this into baby steps for Mabel and we worked together over a few weeks. Stay tuned for the follow up videos and the steps I took to get her into Winners successfully!
Why I would never take my puppy on extra walks to tire them out!
It often leads to even more overstimulation (think leash biting, ankle biting, barking, stopping on the walk, flopping over).
Also, our puppies joints are still fusing together and over walking them can lead to injury. (Please, don’t be afraid to walk your puppy, just no 5km hikes yet!)
Instead, have a little play session or do some training and then send them for a nap.

The one thing you need to teach a puppy to walk with a loose leash is consistent rewards!
I like using wooden spoons dunked because they come in different lengths and there’s still flavour left behind even after the goodies are gone.
Use a ball launcher, a wooden spoon, or a squeeze tube - the goal is to reward every step they take when they’re first starting out!
With a little practice you can start holding the spoon up, out of reach, and periodically rewarding with a lick.
Then switch to regular treats! By this point your dog may be taller, making them easier to reach to deliver the treat!
Try this inside, then take it to a quiet outside spot and let me know in the comments how you make out!

This was cute!
For anyone wondering what the hell “Pavlov” means: very simply, it’s a consistent thing (in this case the music) that tells them another thing is going to happen (treats!).
This song has played each day for the last 13 days right before she’s been given a treat. Today, I tested her while she was in another room to see if she understood the music meant food.

Game changer for winter dog walks!
These squeeze tubes are sooo handy and you have so many options, especially if you have a blender!
You just need to blend the food well enough that it becomes a slurry. Gross, I know, but so are your hands full of slobber!
Do you use a squeeze tube? What do you put in it? Let me know in the comments!

I wanted to take moment to talk about the change my students experience when they work with me through Pawsitive Strides!
