Had to laugh when I read your post---thinking about you trying to walk 2 of them---too bad you can't harness them like a couple of horses and train them to go where you want, lol, then you could fly along behind them---seriously though I bet that doesn't feel so good--I have a 'puller' too. He is really strong for what he is I guess. Have a cocker/golden retriever mix named Corky--will be 11 on June 13--he still pulls about the same even though he is getting old and have a pure cocker called Max (although he gets called Pax or Paxer--no sense, but?--guess a lot of nicknames don't make sense!) He just turned 10 on April 1st. Have to say (and I mispell words all the time, but this is like a 'pun' on words or did you mean it that way--anyway it works and it is funny--the word "shocket" instead of socket---I imagine it is kind of a shock to the socket--Sorry I couldn't resist that.
Guess I better end this before I get any sillier. Again, welcome to the forum--
look forward to seeing you around.

Hello,welcome to forum. I have Pembroke welsh Corgi that is TALLER corgi with 14 inch tall but if she stands next to your Isabella,she would really look dwarf:-D

I hear that No-pull harness by Sporn is good.I have never used one though.
If you look through past posts on loose leash walking under training section you may find good tip.

Enjoy forum!

Yeah the no-pull from Sporn is great, my friend with her St. Bernard are doing good with that one.

Hi Deanna, I have a tip for you to try along with the other's that were recommended to you... When chevy and I were in school and he would pull me (I ended up seeing a chiropractor because of it) I would hold a treat in my free hand on the side he was walking ( just a small tid bit of something) it was enough to keep him interested and walk beside me I also added praise, praise and more praise when he did'nt pull..

Hi Deanna, I did reply to you but I don't know what happened to it. Anyway, I have a tip to add. When chevy and I were in puppy school we would hold a treat in our hand along side of the pup. It kept them interested enough to walk beside us. That along with praise, praise and more praise seemed to work for us...
Good luck to you and isabella.....
