I have not encountered ultrasound training clickers. Can you share a link to what you’re talking about?
Regarding harnesses, my answer will depend on your expectations for a harness. I don’t like them for training purposes, as they can be used incorrectly. Corrective harnesses can and will change the gait of the dog, often permanently, especially if used when the dog is a young puppy…and without training the dog to walk nicely on a flat collar, a regular harness will encourage pulling.
hi Laura, thank you for your comments. Coco is a very strong Springer and I find it difficult stopping her pulling until she has run off some energy. She is coming 2. Any tips would be welcomed. The training device emits a sound only the dog can hear but I feel it cannot be good for her.
Is it like a pet corrector?
What have you done to train a nice walk? I like Kikopup’s video here: https://youtu.be/sFgtqgiAKoQ?si=GSirkizFuc87tWQl
She’s a positive trainer who really explains things nicely. Work on a solid heel position first, THEN worry about loose leash walking your dog. And remember, dogs don’t generalize well, so you’ll have to work on this at home and out in public.
Additionally, Fenzi Dog Sports has classes you can do at home on this exact issue: https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/10-course-descriptions/29471-ls140-stop-leash-pulling-multiple-methods-to-loose-leash-walking
