  1. How Can You Walk Two Dogs at Once Easily? Let’s Get Started As your dogs grow old, they learn that only a loose leash can get them where they wish to go and sniff around. But you have to train your dog for the loose leash to work. Every dog-walker knows that pulling on the leash always stops the walk. Irrespective of what the situation is, whether going for a morning walk or into doggy daycare, your dog must only make any forward progress if there is slack in the leash. If your dog is a trained puller, you should start your dog- walks in areas that are less distracting such as in your backyard or inside your house. Once your dog gets used to walking on a loose leash in these places, eventually increase the distractions by taking your dog for a walk around the block. Get Your Dogs Together If you have two dogs, then work with them on altering between heeling and walking on a loose leash until they are ready to do both together. Practice heeling and loose leash walking together in areas that have fewer distractions. If either of the two dogs is distracted, take it back to walking and training them separately. If required, take a partner dog more often by having somebody else walk one dog along with the dog you are walking, but maintain some distance. When both your dogs pass in their loose leash heeling and walking, you can eventually bring them closer until they are in control with only one person holding a dog leash coupler.A loose leash allows your dogs to sniff and explore. You should only use a heel when a compelling distraction is there, like a street crossing or an approaching dog. Combine heeling and loose leash walking in all your walks until it becomes second nature for both your dogs. How Can You Comfortably Take Two Dogs On A Walk Without Getting Pulled In Multiple Directions? Walking both your dogs at the same time can be pretty challenging in the beginning. Unless you have trained both your dogs to walk smoothly on a dog leash coupler, taking them on walks together can be really difficult and have you getting pulled in multiple directions. But at the

  2. same time, taking them together can turn into a bonding experience for you as well as your furry friends. Only the dogs that are relaxed and calm must be walked together if you have a coupler for dogs. This will work out as long as either of your dogs picks up behaviour issues from other dogs. If you are walking one lunging and barking dog, you will soon have the same problem with the other one if you walk them together as it will pick up behaviour from other dogs. The perfect tool like a coupler for dogs can help you in handling two dogs together, A dog leash couplerthat pivots and has one handle for both the dogs reduces the chance of tangling while a front clip dog leash coupler will minimize pulling. It will result in easier walks. You not only need a dog leash coupler but also simple training to solve this problem. Banish Pulling If both your dogs are relaxed and friendly but lack leash manners, then leash training will bring a lot of difference. Training your dogs to walk on a loose leash and heel whenever commanded will make your walks more fun. Pulling on a leash is the nature of dogs because they have an opposition reflex which makes them pull back whenever they feel pressure on the leash. Although it is a natural behaviour, you can still train your dogs that pulling on the leash will not pay off.
