She does NOT listen to me outside on a walk when people, bikes, kids or/and dogs are around, and there's usually a few around at all times during the day. I have tried to lure her back to a heel, but she doesn't care, even if I had a whole cooked chicken breast with me, she gets quite nervous even if there's only one stranger around, and has been on multiple different walks at different times and routes, since we got her, and she is less afraid than when we first had her, but still not much of a listener, unless we are at home.
Currently, I use a Julius k-9 harness. Hunter collar. Own a hunter head collar/muzzle, she hates it, and I have introduced it to her properly and happy to use it until she pulls, but she doesn't get that if she pulls it tightens, so she pulls and then frantically tries to get it off. I have tried to get her to come back, but some days she is really pully with. Have tried to distract her as she loves the squeaker noise (from toys), by taking it on a walk, she doesn't care. Rarely reacts to the stop as soon as she pulls. She does a quick U-turn and bolts off to pull again. She is really stubborn sometimes.
So I am looking at other options like the Halti front control harness and the other Halti no pull harness, I have heard people on her don't recommend the front control because it restricts movement...
Is there any advice and tips on what I could do? Thanks in advance.
