It still was hit and miss. I hated that Mac.

Harness and a sled and let her haul you around. I used to do that with my St. Barnyard when I was a kid

Hehe. But my winter only last for about two months

Did I say I'll be holidaying on the Perth beaches next week yet? Should I spend the next few days rubbing it in?

the idea D, is to teach the puppy not to pull, not put a harness on her to let her pull.

What you need is a deterrent to her pulling you, where she wants to go, either you make it so lovely to be at your knee using food treats, and spend the rest of her puppyhoood feeding her treats, or...

you get a "choker chain" link collar and she gets a few walks of tough love with a gentle quick yank to pull her into line. It will only take a few 15 minute walks with (if you want) treats for being really really good, and a quick jerk for when she pulls . And puppy obedience classes would be a good idea. I trained and showed dogs for years, and I never ever used a harness. Had Labs, Afghans, Whippets, Old English Sheepdogs, Boston Terriers blah blah, some of those dogs were really big and a harness just would still allow them to pull me around, the idea is to make them "want to stay at your left knee", to love to be next to you, and for them to watch what you are doing and for them to anticipate your movements, not you following them.

Sheesh! I honestly don't know what wrong with that woman? I just asked her if she'd buy me this '85 930 - 'not today' was the reply.

Although, it's not a NO! this time.....hmmm, we're getting somewhere......obviously need more brownie points....

Parents live in Mandurah. First week will be in Margret River - I can feel another all day winery tour coming on. Second week - Perth/Mandurah.

PS. Love Airlie Beach too.
