Walking a dog isn't as simple as putting a collar on a dog and attaching a leash to it. Yet this is how most people do it. Good leash manners actually require quite a few skills from a dog that needs to be trained first before we step outside into the world of distractions, this is particularly important with young puppies. And following through on those good leash manners on a daily basis is the consistency that is crucial for this type of training, otherwise, the training will forever be confusing for the dog and go back and forth because of it.
