[QUOTE="98TJ, post: 524870, member: 3677"] I didn't like spitting in their food, but the guy explained it like this: In the wild, the alpha wolf eats his fill first, then the other dogs eat. They smell his saliva in their food and that tells them that he is the leader and will be doing all the thinking for them; so they just need to follow his lead. As for taking them on walks and only stopping where you decide; that is a great idea. That also lets them know you are the alpha dog. As for them walking you; if they pull on the leash, don't just pull back. When he starts pulling, quickly give the lease a little slack and then emediately SNAP that leash back. Snap it back hard if you are dealing with a big dog. Try to spin them half-way around. Dogs will pull all day on a lease, but they hate it when the lease snaps them back. It only takes a few times and they will quit pulling. We were in puppy school many years ago and there was a very small black girl (90 lbs) with a very big Wrotwiler (140 lbs) dragging here all over the room. The trainer showed her how to snap that lease and by the end of the first night, she was walking the dog. :) [/QUOTE]
