Why did I not buy one of these earlier? They are amazing. Striker has always walked well on a leash at home, but by our vet's guidance, we kept him pretty close to home until he finished his vaccinations since dobes are so prone to Parvo.
Once he got out in public, he forgot his leash "manners" with all the new smells, sights, people, etc... and pulled on us like crazy. He's almost 50 pounds at 18 weeks so this was a bit of an issue since he was pulling me also! :roflmao:
We picked up a Gentle Leader harness the other day, and the difference has been day and night! It is amazing. He hasn't pulled at all. I never would have thought simply changing a harness would work.
Also, Kefir.... definitely going to keep adding that to his diet. He's on antibiotics at the moment, and the vet suggested adding yogurt to his diet. I saw the Kefir on the shelf next to the yogurt, and I am adding both yogurt and Kefir to his meals. I don't even have to hide his big Keflex pills from him (it's actually a C-word generic form). I just have to put the pill in the Kefir, and he gobbles it right up. I think my boy is addicted to the stuff! lol
