Timing is everything! (And how to use timing to your training advantage.)

Management changes and specific training exercises you can do to help solve-it
From Lunging-on-a-Leash to Strolling-down-the-Street, Side by
Side:
Cuing your dog to pay attention to you on your walk:
Where should the dog be? Where should the dog’s focus
be? What should your dog be doing?
Equipment Advantages and Disadvantages
Practice suggestions in the dining room, at the door, and your backyard
Using a leash as a reminder/ positive reinforcer, NOT as a strong-armed
enforcer
Varying your walking directions and speeds
To pee or not to pee: if not all the time, why and when?
Teaching your dog to halt and wait on your command
Varying your reinforcement options for walking side by side
Converting distractions (cars, trucks, bikes, dogs, squirrels, etc.) into cues
