Does the gentle leader really work? I have a dog whom I’ve done obedience with and have used training collars?
Pinch collars etc. My dog really pulls. So much so that I’ve been dragged down the street more than once. My vet recently recommended the gentle leader. I’m just curious as to if this really works. My dog is very well behaved except on walks. I’m hoping you all can tell me if its worth the money.
What standards are there for training a puppy or dog to be a service animal?
I live in Massachusetts, and I want to train my lab puppy so that I can take her into nursing homes to visit residents as a service/therapy dog. Any information about certification in MA would be helpful. She will go to obedience training and be taught basic commands like sit, stay, down, off, heel, and stop. Thanks!
