My dog is awesome, but she's always sucked walking on a leash. She pulls a lot and I've got to brace myself to use some muscle before each walk. We've tried a variety of collars, harnesses, treats and training techniques...she gets it, she just doesn't give a fuck.
I got this head harness called a gentle leader, it's very similar to a horse lead style. Since it connects the leash under the dogs chin, the dog can't pull forward without practically turning around the opposite direction. My dog walked like an angel
instantly (although you could tell she felt a little defeated).
It's a very comfortable loose fit, and there's no choking. They can still drink water, pant, yawn, bark, barf, etc. You can get them at most major pet supply chains, it was the best $20 I've ever spent on my dog
