Default Deterring a puppy

Not really. Best bet is to train the dog not to - let him run around
on a long piece of string and as soon as he starts, give him a sharp
tug back and loud "NO" should work after a few tries.


This is how it is done and if required a check chain is used, similar to a
choke chain, but put on in such a way that it goes slack as soon as it is
released, BUT, is it 'his' place to train the dog? I think not. It is up to
the owner to control and train the dog. If not done, what will that dog be
like later?
