My pup has only gone through 2 obedience lessons and is finally getting with the program on leash training. Prior to that he either sprinted way ahead of me, or I had to drag him, or he'd zig zag in front of me trying to trip me up. Most of the time I'm also walking my older corgi, not so easy for me. As Debbie said, with dog on leash, take a few steps back, call puppy and when it comes give it a treat and praise it (we also use a clicker). When the pup seems to be coming to you for the treat with your walking backwards, turn forward and walk with the pup a few steps at a time while treating. This seems to work for my pup for training and when I'm taking actual walks on a long walk outside of the yard I don't bring the treats but praise every so often when he walks beside me with the leash loose. It'll happen. Remember, they're babies. ~Shelly
