Hi, i am thinking about training my APBT for weight pulling. He is only a puppy, 3 months old. I know i can not start his training until he is older than 16 months, but I asked the trainer ( he started puppy training class this past Tuesday) if I can have him walk good on a loose leach and still have him work hard when he has to. She said that it might be hard due to contradictions in commands. Is this true? Are there any tricks to help them learn the difference? Are all weight pulling dogs hard to walk? Please help, iwant to learn as much as i can about this issue. Thank you for your comments/suggestions.
