The goal of the first stage of training should be to only require the dog to adapt to the leash, not to achieve the leash effect. The leash for puppies can be made of short cotton net with a light leash, about 0.8-1.0 meters long. The collar can be made of soft and smooth nylon (note that smooth and light materials must be used, which is very important for the puppy's development and adaptation), and its width should be about 0.6 cm. When a dog is tied with a leash, the leash is hooked on the buckle of the collar.
For the puppy to get used to the index belt, let him play or run for about 20 minutes each time with a leash. Eventually, the dog will forget the restriction brought by the leash, and jump and run as naughty as usual.
Take off the traction belt after training. If you are not used to training time, don't worry. As time goes by, dogs will get used to it. When puppies are used to wearing short leashes, they can share a 1.8-meter-long cotton leash.
When tying the leash, you should dispel your doubts for the dog and speak softly. Some dogs may try their best to break free. At this time, trainers should follow the dogs and take the initiative to adapt to the puppies. The traction belt should always be in a relaxed state, so that the neck ring does not have any tension.
In most countries in the world, the popular method of holding the leash is to buckle the end of the leash with the right hand and hold the redundant middle of the leash with the left hand. This method has the advantage of being able to flexibly grasp the walking direction of the dog. Even if the dog breaks away from the leash, the trainer's right hand still holds the leash, so that the dog will not get lost.
When the dog is used to traction, he should lead the dog to change direction and walk regularly, so that the dog can turn to the left or right side of the trainer, or walk in a circle. If the dog imitates the direction, it should be corrected gently in time. When the trainer stops, let the dog sit down and delay. Of course, these are the topics for future training.
