By teaching your dog to walk to heel can help stop your dog pulling on the lead. Your dog should be happy to walk at heel, on lead and off. However, your dog cannot be expected to do this if you don't take the time to teach him or where the heel position is.
The heel position is next to your left or rights leg and the dog close to your knee. You can also link this command to others, such as 'sit' or 'down'. If you have more than one dog, it would be the dominant dog that will try to get there first. The other dog will then make do with walking close to your right leg. Just go along with this arrangemnt shuould make it much easier to control the dogs.
For more information on training the heel position, go to my FQA on my website.
