What is the best way to teach a dog to walk with you without a leash2007-11-25 2:52:34

second is, bring a horn or anything that make a sound, a bell for example, and train them to go here where the sound is and give them the food if they followed it...

last is, if they are trained enough, try not bringing any food anymore and ring the bell, they will go where the bell is because they are expecting a reward...

just train them in your house so that they may not wonder around in other places...

one fact is that it will really take time, you must have patience...if u are rily willing to train them, u should be patient and teach and train them time by time until they get it...

goodluck!

I trained my dog by walking around a big park on leash until she was familiar with it. Then I would let her off leash in one corner where it was away from the street & fenced. I would hold a treat down in my hand at my side, so she would follow the treat. As long as she stayed by my side, I'd give her a small treat after walking a distance. Then I let her walk ahead or behind off leash, but would reward her when she came to my "Come" call. Once I felt comfortable in that area, I expanded the area that I would let her off leash. I would always leash when we got near the street & parking lot. My problem now is that sometimes she doesn't keep up with me because she's too busy smelling everything! Oh, and I never completely trust her 100% -- as the Vet Tech said, it only takes one time for the dog to run after something, so I watch her very closely and if she doesn't mind, she's leashed up! There are alot of good answers - "recall" command very important!

I think it is a natural and inherent ability. Some dogs can walk without a leash, other can't walk without a leash.
