Recommendations for North Toronto/Richmond Hill area dog trainer
We just re-homed 14 months Labrador Retriever girl - Bonny.
She's very sweet, smart, and obedient (75% of the cases), but during walks she's pulling uncontrollable, even on "gentle" leash. I'd appreciate recommendations of private trainer for a couple lessons to teach her properly walk. Thanks Alex |

Do mean a gentle leader like this ? Maybe you're not putting it on right , it could be too loose but you don't want it so tight that is leave a mark on your dog nose.

Yes, exactly like this.
It's not so tight, but she's still pulling hard. And yes, it's starting to leave marks on her nose, so I want to get her off this leash as soon as possible. We contacted dog trainer, will see if she can help us. |

I used a gentle leader with my last dog and I know if it wasn't on correctly he could pull me . I hope the dog trainer can help you . Your dog is beautiful !
And good for you getting a black dog , b/c more black dogs are put down than other dogs . There is a black dog syndrome in the states some people were really afraid of my black standard poodle. |

Thank you all,
she's not rescue, just a family couldn't get her proper time and attention (2 small kids), so we re-homed her. First lesson on this Sunday, will report. |
