no prong this morning wth was i thinking

[maryellen]

this morning i decided to not walk sadie with her prong on.. it was early am, i figured no one was around. her and rufus went out and we did very well on our potty run... till we were coming back and a woman was walking a little white foo foo dog. luckily all sadie wanted to do was play,she listened really well then tried to pull me into the street lol... but at least it wasnt as bad as when i first got her. i can walk her alone without her prong until she sees another dog she wants to play with or a critter. i did a detour this morning from my normal route as there was a deer in the road where i normally walk by the pool so i went a different way . i am going to try to wean her off the prong and pray it works, cause if it doesnt my bad shoulder will pay dearly for it. i will however carry her prong in my pocket just in case

If I can find my other sensation harness I will let you borrow it. I hope I did not leave it at one of the shelters. I have not seen it in a while. Probably in one of my bags somewhere. My shoulder and back is the reason I use it.

she pulls in those i had one for her and it didnt work. i just took her for her 2nd walk and no prong again, when i walk her without rufus she doesnt pull. when rufus is with us she does

yeah they can still pull takes power out and allows for ability to train not to pull as opposed to no pull tools

i prefer the prong, it works better for her, with harnesses she pulls as her old owner used harnesses on her
