Ok Friends, I'm in need of recommendations. I need a dog trainer (perhaps a behavioral trainer) in the clark/cranford/linden area. Walking Chloe really stresses me out (even brings me to tears). I've tried for a year now to work with her. I'm obviously doing something wrong because I've tried EVERYTHING. And, nothing is working. I've read countless books. Watched numerous videos. Took suggestions friends. Tried the gentle lead, the no-pull harness and even the one that wraps around her hind legs. I've brought toys and high value treats on our walks. I tried talking to her in a playful way. Took her on long bike rides, then tried walking her. I tried walking in a different direction when she pulls. We stop. She sits. I BREATHE. And, Still nothing.
Who knows of someone good for me?
