We walk the dogs (two beagles) as often as we can. Not every day, but usually 4 or 5 times a week. I always wonder what those other people do to their dogs so that they walk nicely beside them! We usually get about a mile in, and pull until the last little bit. We have them in harnesses, because the choke collars were giving them breathing problems. When I had boxers, they were more responsive to corrections when they pulled. The beagles just wonder why I pulled back. Oh and with the harness, one of the beagles thinks she's pulling a sled and does that strange hop pull thing. It's really funny to watch if you're not the one with the leash.
