Dylan at one time was quite the puller, I learned this method, the Leash Wrap, and it worked well. The first time I tried it on him he kept turning around to see what was touching his belly.
When he realized that I had a new control, the gave in very quickly to my request of "Easy". I did it on a second ocassion and have never needed to
do it again. I was very careful of where I let the leash touch him, but he was still concentrating very hard on his doodle.
Here is a picture of Dylan demonstrating the Leash Wrap, and looking none too pleased.
