QUESTION:
I have a 4 month old puppy that wants to sniff everything while we are on walks. I try redirecting to me, I mark and reward but he would rather return to sniffing. Could you give me advice on how to get a nice steady
walk with him?
ANSWER:
It's not unusual for puppies of this age to not be the best "walkers".
I am actually raising a German Shepherd puppy right now who is the same age and I don't even bother trying to accomplish the kind of leashed walk I will eventually participate in with him. It's more about building a
relationship and letting him learn about the world. 4 month old large breed puppies are like 7-8 year old kids. They're learning about the world and puppies do this through their nose. I certainly don't expect puppies
of this age to walk with me in a state of engagement. It's simply too much for most of them.
