As long as you do not jerk her too hard, it should be ok. Btw, how old is Kinki?(sorry..i forgot ) If she's an adult, it's going to be a little difficult. There are a few methods. The easier one is to get a gentle leader. Slip it on, let her get used to it..and voila~ The other is to teach her to walk next to you. First, you can start with a smaller space. Like in your garden. Keep her by your side. If she pulls u, pull/jerk her back into place and say a low "NO" or a command like "don't pull" etc.. Continue walking. As long as she's by your side, praise her. At the end of a short session, gv her treats.Short session meaning starting fr 1m or below then extending the length...if she does not pull, gv her a treat. Later on, do the samething outside. Note: SInce it's out of the garden, she'll get more distracted with all the sights,sounds and smells.It will take more time. But in a while she'll know the concept in the garden applies to outdoors too. Be careful not to set goals which are too high. You'll get frustrated and so will Kinki. A big no-no for training. Hope it helps ,-._,-. \/)"(\/ (_o_)
