Hi Agnes, the pulling is a common but easy to solve problem. Get a very long line/rope and attach to the collar. Let her run around on a open field until the full line is extended and then start walking in the opposite direction. Don’t talk, just walk. Whenever she starts walking in the same direction, change direction. Even the most stubborn dogs will get frustrated and start focusing on the master after a while. Within a few sessions, you will be able to shorten the line, because she will walk next to you. Then you can start working on the proper heel command, if you wish to achieve that. If she pulls when distracted by cats, etc. only then it is the stern HEEL command together with a swift “reminder” by jerking the leash which would do the job quickly. Good Luck.
