Have you put them on a chain. That seems to help younger dogs that are a little wild on a lead.

Just give it time as you know already, I try not to drag the heck out of them, they seem to fight it more. I like to leash them up and just stand there till they make a move and follow them for a minute. Kind of like a give and take system, let them lead you then you take your turn. Its all about the time spent with the dog pretty soon they always understand what you want.

Two weeks ago I put my pup on a chain and he fought it for 3 hours and i let him off. Today i put him on a chain for good and he didnt even fight it. They learn pretty quick. All my other dogs ive chained up they fight it but by the next morning they are always used to it. They are ready for a lead.

i always just put mine on the chain and let them fight it in an hr or so they learn the chain isnt going to give up so they finally give in...just make sure they cant get tangled around anything so that they strangle themselves ahd a buddy do that with a high dollar lab pup her feet could touch the ground but she had wrapped herself so tight that she choked herself down

Put the pups on a chain for a day or 2, they will calm down and accept the chain. After that put a leash on them and let them run around until they calm down. Kind of ignore them during this training. once they are ok with the leash pick up the leash and kind of play with the pup so that it will follow you around. If the pup wants to pull away a little follow the pup and try to get its attention off the leash. If it is fighting the leash let it run around with the leash until it is ok with it. This has always worked for me. Dragging the pup around will not help. It will take a long time to break the pup if it is forced to lead. You can also give the pup a small treat to get his attention off the lease and keep a treat handy so the pup can focus on the treat and not the leash.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
