When you put a leash on your dog and it doesn't move what should you do?

If your dog finds wearing a leash and/or collar aversive, you will need to train it to wear the leash. Luckily, this is no more difficult than your average Dog Training exercise. The following process is called counter-conditioning. Identify a reward for which your dog is very motivated: a tasty food treat (in small bites), or even a prized toy or quick game. The goal is to use the leash as a predictor of the reward, so that the dog will eventually be conditioned to respond to the leash in the same manner as the reward. Start small. Put the leash into the dog's view, and reward. Then remove the leash from view. Repeat. When the dog is being rewarded 95% of the time it sees the leash, slightly increase the difficulty. Move the leash closer, and reward if the dog does not shy. When that is successful, move the leash even closer until the only rewarded behavior is touching the leash to the dog. Tips: Do not make the trial more difficult until you are willing to bet $20 the dog will not shy or avoid the leash. Also: Removing the leash and not rewarding is a very important part of this training! It informs the dog that the leash and only the leash is the source of the treats. Continue this training until you can reliably pretend to put a leash on your dog and reward for good behavior. Then you are ready to try actually putting the leash on. Continue to reward for good behavior while the dog is on leash, and try to make leash time rewarding in itself (an exciting walk, or play-time). Once your dog has overcome its anxiety with the leash, very gradually phase out the number and frequency of treats to a more manageable level.

Walk a dog?
Well, it depends on what you mean. If you mean walking an actual dog, then that's easy. The dog should have a leash and collar, the collar should have a metal hook, and so should the leash. You hook the leash onto the collar and then grab the other end of the leash. When you hold the leash, start walking and the dog should start walking too. If the dog doesn't then you should keep trying to get him to until he does. If you're talking about the yo-yo trick then it's when you take the yo-yo, hold the little loop on the end of the string, push the yo-yo in front of you and keep it there, as if it was a dog that you were watching.

Should dogs be required to be off leash?
No, dogs should be required to be on a leash when walking. First of all some dogs run off. For example if your dog isn't on a leash when your walking and it runs off and gets hit by a car. Next your dog could run away and not be found. For example we all love our animals and I'm sure no one wants to lose their dog because the dog wasn't wherein a leash .Lastly it is safer for your dog and the ones around it. For example if your dog is aggressive and its not on a leash it could bite someone and you could get sewed and your dog put to sleep .And that is why I think dogs should be required to be on a leash when walking.And plus its the lawBy,Hayley Smith®
