Misconceptions of Walking a Dog

Hi, this is Ryan Gwilliam with Expert Village and I'm going to teach you some common myths about how you walk your dog. One of the things is that people think that you have to keep your dog on the same side at all times. This is not true. I have, I walk several dogs at a time and I can mix them up any way I want and change who walks next to who and however I want to do it because I am the pack leader and I get to decide what it is I want to do with the dogs. Also the dog's head can go past your leg, but if his shoulders are getting past your leg when you're walking then he's too far ahead and he's going to start feeling like he's leading you, he's leading you and he's in charge. And the important thing to know is that in a pack of dogs there's only one pack leader and everybody else is a follower. So if he's ahead of you then your the follower and that's not what we want. We want them to obey us, and be submissive to us. And so we need to be where we are always in front.
