I have a 10 week old Labrador puppy. He’s not bothered by the leash at all. His resistance to walking basically boils down to wanting to lie down and eat sticks, grass, dirt, and any other thing he can find. I like to let him explore the things he likes, but I can’t let him constantly eat these things. Any suggestions?

We have a 44kg bullmastiff who constantly stops on walks, lays down or just refuses to walk (usually on our way home) .. however she really can’t walk for too long as she gets so tired so not like we could just carry the walk on for much longer. we try to stop and be patient with her but sometimes she could be laying there for a very very long time any suggestions?

In reply to Mariano. My 8-year old Maltipoo doesn't want to walk either. He loves the stroller! So I walk him in stroller. After about 3 blocks I take him out of stroller and he starts to walk because he knows the shorter way home!

He doesn’t do it often but when we head home after a fun time at the park or a good walk, he’ll throw kind of a funny “fit.” He’ll lay down and then wiggle on his back. Then he’ll lie there for a few seconds. I learned to let him do his little fit and when he’s ready he’ll get up. It’s hilariously cute, but if I am in a rush – – not so much. I am patient and I make fun of him while he does it. It’s really taught me to stop and just wait until he’s done.
