Tips on getting your dog to walk with a stroller:

When starting to get your dog used to the stroller you want to keep it simple with little distractions. Keep the stroller in a stationary position and walk your dog around the stroller. When your dog is ignoring the stroller and paying no attention you want to reward the behaviour. This will build your dog's confidence in being around the stroller.



Next step is to start taking a few steps while pushing the stroller. When the dog is staying, reinforce the behaviour with a reward food/toy. When you’re marking the behaviour, you want to walk away from the stroller paying with food/toy, then bring the dog back into position and start over until you keep getting more steps.

Stay tuned for more tips for successful walks with your family!!!!
