He is just pushing his weight around, it is now a battle that you must win. Tighten up his collar hook up the leash and start walking, look forward and keep walking, do not look back at him, if he balks don't stop, if he stops keep walking, drag h...
One Corgi owner told me to get "Flossies" which I did and Bodie LOVED them. I think they are some sort of dried out intestine (which sounds totally nasty) but he LOVED it and it lasted a pretty long time. Be warned though, they kind of smell once ...
My Maggie also do the same thing. She is afraid car noise. So if there is a noise car around she will just lay down or try to run back to the house. Other time, she is just refuse to walk. Most of these happen when I want to walk to a way that she...
Aw, yes. The famous "carry our approach". We do it all the time, even though it looks terrible (and people think we are just spoliing him) it seems like it is the only alternative to literally dragging him out or waiting for another dog to leave, ...
Oh, dear, I have this issue with two Corgis, and they both pull the halt at different times! I actually wrote this blog because, essentially, I gave up and moved to the country where we rarely walk on leashes at all. I have on several occasions CA...
OMG! That is EXACTLY what Bodie does. It's pretty much a given that both of us have to go on the walk. It's really is as if he is just bored on a "regular" walk. He pretty much knows which direction the dog park is, and if we aren't headed in that...
Hi! We have a similar problem with our Leo...he loves going to the park & for walks when my husband & I take him together. However if there is only 1 of us, he'll refuse to go...he'll hardly go down the stairs & pee & that's it. No move.He'll Lay ...
Yes, I have heard of these, thank you. Isn't the gentle leader mostly used for dogs who pull? The problem with Bodie is that he just won't move at all! He turns into a corgi blob:)
He USE to fall for the treats, but quickly learned how to snatch the treat and quickly lay back down. Sneeky! Ya the short walk is a good idea, I think we just get over anxious to keep going, and quickly learn he is not ready.
I think the "flat dog" syndrome would be better than the temper tantrums I deal with when I walk with my pup. She'll whine and cry if we aren't near my boyfriend and his dog. Such a cute puppy! I can't wait to dress my baby up this halloween.
Welcome! : ) I have heard of people calling the laying flat as a pancake, flat dog, corgis are known to do that on walks when they dont wont to walk anymore they go into flat dog mode, lol!
