    4 Month Old Heeler Puppy Doesn’t Like Walks

    @zohmingliani Yeah she does bite at it often and has issue with me pulling to correct. I’m getting her a new harness she might need a better/bigger one

    4 Month Old Heeler Puppy Doesn’t Like Walks

    @jtcarrieres It’s what makes her so hard to read in this context. I can’t tell if she’s little and tired and I’m pushing too hard, or if she’s just being a stubborn pup trying to get her way. Even with her walking issues she’s been one of the smartest/quickest learning pups I’ve ever had, and...

    4 Month Old Heeler Puppy Doesn’t Like Walks

    @jtcarrieres Every other dog I’ve had loved going on walks pretty much from the start so this is new to me. Should’ve mentioned in the original post that she is also deaf which could be contributing to the issue. I was hoping to get most of her physical activity through walks but I may just...

    4 Month Old Heeler Puppy Doesn’t Like Walks

    @kathleenloveschrist This has kind of been my idea. I’ve been trying to be consistent with her and allow her to go at her pace and smell everything. (I should’ve mentioned she is also deaf which could also be playing a role) I’ve noticed over time that she’s done better the more we’ve gone on...

    4 Month Old Heeler Puppy Doesn’t Like Walks

    I’ve had my 4 month old Heeler (my first Heeler) for about two months now and walking her has always been a bit of a pain. At the start especially she will constantly sit or lay down refusing to go where I’m directing. I’ve brought some of her kibble which helps mitigate that issue but she still...
