When i walk Marley near traffic he pulls towards cars. He pulls that hard that if i didnt have a good grip he would get ran over.
Does anyone else have this problem with there Bulldog?
I would be thankfull of any advise.

Buster did this and it took me awhile to break him of the habit. The only thing that works is to get his attention off the cars and on to you. I tried taking treats with me and when he started I yelled out his name and held the treat out. It's really frustrating but it will get better. Buster hardly does it at all anymore.

Just have to re-direct his attention when he does that, usually a quick tug to the side with the leash works or a bump on the rear with your foot to get is attention and tell him NO at the same time and he will soon get the message.

the guys got you covered... practice and treats... redirect as much as you can and try to get his attention before the pulling/barking starts
