Dog Refuses to Walk - Why your dog lies down, freezes at the harness or won't go home, how to tell fear from stubbornness, and a gentle step-by-step plan to get a reluctant walker moving again #1012474

You put on your shoes, clip the leash, and your dog lies down in the middle of the street and will not get up. Or he freezes the second the harness appears, or plants himself at the end of the driveway, or turns into dead weight when you point toward home. You have tried stop-and-go, treats, coaxing and waiting, and strangers keep telling you he is just being stubborn. Dog Refuses to Walk is a calm, force-free guide to figuring out why your dog stops and what to do about it. It is about the dog who freezes, sits, lies down or goes limp, which is a different problem from a dog who pulls or lunges, so you will not be sent back through leash-pulling drills or reactivity protocols. Inside, you'll learn: Patient, practical and kind to both ends of the leash, this book helps you stop standing on the pavement wondering what you are doing wrong and start moving forward, one comfortable step at a time.
