introducing a puppy to a long lead

As puppies grow, so do their curiosity and energy, making it crucial to establish good training habits, such as recall and loose-leash walking, early on. Long-lead training not only ensures a puppy's safety but also allows the puppy the freedom to explore and learn new skills.

In this video, KPA CTP Bailey Stickney demonstrates how to walk with a puppy on a long leash. Bailey encourages her puppy, Sadie, to walk with her by tossing a treat in front of Sadie’s nose. When Sadie eats the treats and comes toward Bailey looking for more, Bailey clicks and tosses another treat. Bailey repeats this sequence until Sadie is walking with her confidently. When Sadie becomes distracted, Bailey calls Sadie to her, rewarding the puppy for choosing to follow her rather than continuing to focus on the distraction.
