Thinking of getting a harness for Buster

Hello for those of you that dont know me i an owned by Buster whos is a 1 year old Staff Cross.

Well to cut a long story short I do not take Buster to training as my OH does not let me and I try and train him myself but he is a bit wild. 2 things I need to concentrate on are his pulling on lead and barking!

OH has been walking him as its 2 dark for me execpt in the day and he is so strong now that he needs to get a bit better, i was working on it in the summer but not much success cus he's so excitable!

I watched Its me or the dog last night and i am thinking of getting the harness thing that was on there, cant remember what its called, what do u think?

Any help with the barking? i have read about equipment u can buy that makes a noise when he barks? he barks at any noise outside the door, to get our attention or if he is playing, he is alot better than he used to be tho.

Your advice is much appreciated, thanks. Alana x

Hiya!!

Sounds like you have the typical staffie there

Danny pulls like a train and I have him in a harness. More control than a collar.

Hope someone on here helps
