Good questions
Before you begin.
Why does my dog pull so hard?
Pulling works for dogs, because it gets them where they want to go. Training makes walking beside you the better deal.
Will a no-pull harness fix it?
It can help manage pulling, but it does not teach the skill. Pair it with practice.
How many leash lessons are common?
A few lessons can set up the basics. Daily practice is what makes the skill last.
Does the area matter?
Yes. Dogs that learn on a quiet block still need practice near traffic, crowds and water.
