The leash is the most valuable tool you will ever have as a dog owner and most people never learn how to actually use it. 🥲
Leash pressure is how you communicate with your dog before they understand words. It’s not force. It’s not punishment. It’s a conversation. A simple upward pull tells your dog “something is being asked of you” and the moment they complete it, you release. That release is part of the reward! 👍
Every command you’ll ever teach, sit, down, come, starts here. If you can’t communicate through the leash, you’re missing the most direct line you have to your dog.
Save this post, practice it & watch how fast your dog starts to understand you 😎
