Reply #11: I have a puppers... [View All]

and there are times where I will pull her along because she has already pissed about 10 times and now she is just pulling to sniff every little thing. She'll even take the "i'm gonna piss" stance, but nothing comes out cuz there ain't nothing left. I'll also pull her along if I don't think it is a proper place to eliminate.
Sounds like your lady may have been a bit rough on the tugging, but if she's got a really resistant dog, she may have to pull harder on the leash. Of course, that's a fine line. I find that I never, ever respond to my pup the same way every day. Most days she is a very good little girl - no tugging on the leash, no criss-crossing in front of me and others on the sidewalk. BUT SOME DAYS - woah, she drives me nuts. I tug harder on those days, and am generally less patient with her antics... usually because she nearly tripped me or another pedestrian.
