How can I teach my pet to walk nicely on a leash

Sure! Here are five different ways you can teach your pet to walk nicely on a leash:

[CaseRose]

**Start Slow**: Begin in a quiet area with minimal distractions. Let your pet get used to the leash and collar first. Reward them with treats when they walk beside you without pulling.

**Use Treats**: Carry some tasty treats and use them to encourage your pet to stay close. Whenever they walk nicely beside you, give them a treat and lots of praise. It helps them associate walking nicely with good things!

**Practice Commands**: Teach commands like “heel” or “let’s go.” When you start walking, use the command and reward them when they follow. Consistency is key, so practice regularly!

**Short Walks**: Keep your walks short at first. If your pet starts pulling, stop walking and wait until they come back to you. This way, they learn that pulling doesn’t get them anywhere.
