Re: High-Pitched Whistle

He mainly pulls on the way TO the dog park during his afternoon walk. With all that stimulation (lots of other dogs and people on their way and in the park) it is challenging (and who can blaim him - he is about to have so much fun and he knows it).

I wouldnt use chicken myself because Im so against the way they are battery farmed and tend to use the hotdogs because there isnt that much meat in them really.

Treats!

Hi, I have just found this forum and am a new but ardent fan of Victoria`s, it is uncanny how similar our methods/solutions are which makes me wonder if she trained with the same behaviour experts I did.
