Gotta disagree and I think most trainers will too, a harness is best for any dog. The way my dog was trained( by a professional) to stay beside me is train them in the garden for a couple of minutes twice a day, take the lead in left hand and with the other drop small amounts of food on the ground just were your leg is and infront of the dog, do not drop any food if she passes your leg, you can them start to turn quickly from one way to the other once the have the hang of it, you will find that not only will they stay at our leg the will watch you aswell

PS: good luck and she's gorgeous

Thanks again for the advice everyone, she is slowly getting better on the lead, we had quite a good walk last night. I will definitely have a look at the spring thing forum.

Sorry to Tara for getting your name wrong, I think I read quicker than my brain works!
