At home your dog is brilliant. Sits, downs, waits at the door. You have a video of it on your phone.
Outside, you may as well be speaking a different language. They pull you down the street with their whole body weight, and when you call them at the park they look directly at you, register the request, and carry on.
The frustrating part is that you know they understand. That is what makes it feel personal.
This is what we see when a dog arrives at our facility after an owner has already had a go at it.
A dog that has only ever done it in a quiet kitchen has learned "sit in the kitchen", not "sit". Generalising a behaviour to new places, surfaces, smells and distractions is a separate job that most people skip because the kitchen version looked finished.
If coming back has ever ended the fun, ended the walk, or ended in a telling-off, the dog has done the maths. Most broken recalls are not defiance — they are an accurate cost-benefit calculation.
Pulling works. It moves the dog toward what it wants, every single time, and a tight leash quietly rewards it on every walk. That is a mechanics problem, and it is fixable in a way that shouting is not.

Everything in the library is included. We don't sell courses individually.
See what's includedIf the pulling comes with lunging and barking at other dogs, start with the reactivity material instead — that is a different problem wearing the same leash.
If you're within driving distance of one of our locations, tell us what's going on. We'll tell you honestly whether this is something you can work through at home or whether your dog belongs in a board & train.
