When a dog this young is scared of leash, it has to do with your procedure in getting the leash on and the way I know that is because of your statement -- the dog likes the walk once the leash is on....
I don't use it. I want the dog to bring the collar to me or jump up or down when it is time to go outside. I can accomplish that by the clinking of a prong collar or even picking up an e-collar to go...
If I got a penny for each prong I've looked at and where people have told me they didn't work, I think I'd be retired by now. The overwhelming majority were not fitted properly. One link too long can...
One of the most important statements we can read in this thread is:
"Reading body language is usually the most important thing."
For folks that don't understand this step, you can learn a lot...
Better supervision. :) The fact that she makes a beeline for the crap (bad pun) tells me you don't have her on a leash. :) Nothing wrong with supervised visits outside. I've done it for months to...
I think we have to remember the written word can be taken out of context and I know that personally, I make the effort to ensure that my written word is not taken out of context based on my replies. ...
For the folks who are relatively new to the forum after the big crash...this poster does not know how Kelly uses the collar in the majority of her training. There is the assumption that the zap was...
No one has mentioned leash tension. :) If the dog is planting his feet, most likely the leash does not have a droop between you and the dog. Also I see the post about the prong. In order for a...
"Not there!" Hold your command (bad pun) until further into the walk. If the dog really really needs to go, you'll know.
Welcome to the forum. Instead of thinking about a disobedient lab, suggest changing the thinking about how to communicate with the dog. Remember that dog doesn't speak our language, but they *will*...
IMO, you haven't yet found what motivates your dog. :) Find that motivator and then use it to your advantage. You mention it isn't food, toys, ball. Be creative. Sometimes it's something as stupid...
Tirerack and discount tire are sources of information. It may not be worth shipping since you folks have VAT up there. Tirerack also has a calculator that will tell you plus one or minus one sizes...
A lot of people don't realize their friendly dog can cause aggression in other dogs. It is all in the (sometimes hidden) body language.
Pits are given a bad rap IMO, and based on my experience....
I do it to correct a particular behavior or to be able to observe said behavior. I cannot correct a problem if I can't see it. :) I sometimes take a leashed dog in a leash free park and I get told...
I also said "Since you cannot go higher, you may be able to electrify below at the jumping point." This would be on the inside of the property. If someone is trespassing on the inside of the fence I...
Here is one from youtube. If this fence were electrified, he wouldn't do that.

Beagle Escape...
I think you first need a video camera to determine if the dog is clearing the fence. If the dog is completely clearing the fence, you will need other options. Since you cannot go higher, you may be...
Keep at it. There are multiple ways of solving this, but you have to remember that it is the pleasure of being greeted, why the dog jumps. It is wonderful to have a friendly dog, but every greeting...
Ok, once she gets in, start up the car, turn on the AC, music. Does she start acting up then, or only when you start moving? If no problem, put the car in gear, but don't move yet. Just sit for a...
No one has mentioned what you were doing at the time of the incident. If you were using the leash to keep him off, you were probably tense. Sure you were scared, but think about how people get hurt...
What I would like to see is if she sits with a car door open. Then eventually lays down on the ground. No food, no talking, just lead her to the open door and stop. Release the tension on the leash....
How was the behavior with the two trainers?
Before you decide on a collar, I think you first need to decide what you want to accomplish with it. Once you decide, then utilize the web to determine the different ways to accomplish that behavior...
If the Mr Clean doesn't work, you might be able to replace the inside panel depending on the model. It might be inexpensive, it might not. You can google the model number off the info label and see...
Similar advice as above. If you're in the house on the couch, and she acts up, you or someone else needs to get up every single time. It can be a RPITA when they start up every 30 seconds, but you're...
