To go on a dog walker Jersey City can be a tremendous stress reliever and bring immense happiness when dog and owner are at one. However some people dread going on a dog walking Jersey City as it can be a nightmare from start to finish, if your dog pulls and is trying to run away. This is why it's vitally important to train your dog and ensure that you and your dog have a walk you'll both enjoy.


1.      Pulling on the lead

This sounds pretty simple but a lot of dogs if not trained properly can turn a dog walker NJ into a very tedious task for the owner as the majority of the time is spent being dragged along by their dog and their arm being wrenched out of its socket.
A simple tip for this is to start as soon as you leave the house by showing your dog who is in charge of the walk and who is walking who. He needs to understand that you control the Hoboken dog walking from the speed to where you go. It's important that you don't let him pull at the end of the lead. The end of the lead and the loop should go through your right hand so you've got complete control in case he breaks loose and your left hand you should hold firmly towards the bottom of the lead, about a foot from the dog's neck. This way you have complete control of how far away from you he is and he won't be able to stray too far ahead or lag behind. If he tries to wander or pull hold him firmly and when he does start to heel give the lead some slack so he knows he's doing it correctly.

2.      Using commands

The most important command when on a dog walk is "heel". This should mean stay to my left side and heel obediently. Before you even start your dog sitter NJ get your dog to sit, then when you begin to walk say heel in a firm voice and make your dog walk at your left side. If he tries to pull or run, stop him, make him sit and try again. Repeat this process until he starts to realize what the command means. You can also use treats to praise him when he is doing it correctly.

3.      Use your voice

Remember to use your voice when you are on a dog sitter NJ, this is one of your most important tools. Your dog knows your voice and will know when you're happy or angry with him. Continue to praise him when he is doing well and use a harsh tone when he misbehaves on the walk. Voice commands work much better when pet sitting NJ than simply yanking at the lead, as he won't know what that means.
Finally always remember to pick up your dogs poop when out on a dog walker Jersey City, it is only courteous to other people and there can be a big fine attached. Remember to always leave the house with spare poop bags and dispose in a dog bin which can always be found around dog friendly parks.
