Walking 2 Puppies

[Nahla + Teddy's Mum]

Hi There!

Just wondering how we go about walking our 2 puppies 15 and 20 weeks old. We have been given the all clear by our vet to take our youngest Teddy out after all his vaccinations and he actually walk's very well naturally which is great!! Our other pup Nahla just wants to run everywhere and pull constantly! Thinking it might be better to take them seperatly until they get the hang of it and are walking properly? I sometimes have to take them by myself without the OH so trying to keep 2 puppies to the left and walk beside me is sometimes a struggle! We are booked in for training classes starting in 2 weeks but just though id ask for anyones opinion that also have 2 adorable puppies? :-)

Definitely walk them separately so they learn to focus on you, you can't train two dogs at once unless you're incredibly experienced and skilled (and then I think you wouldn't try it too often ;))

Walk them seperately until everyone knows what heel means and then bring them together and then the training starts again, sometimes when 2 dogs are together on walks they'll be great and other times they'll be worse.
