[QUOTE="Lawfficer, post: 8728395, member: 23208"] First things first, Great find! Great Breed. 1.) If you want to stop the dog from pulling, get a prong collar.... NOT a choke collar. They look a little harsh, but they work well and don't hurt the dog at all. There is just something about the prong collar that they understand, that dosen't translate with a regular choke collar.

I do stupid things like take they toy she is playing with away and keep it for a couple minutes and not let them have it. Mine knows her role and I can just put the toy on the couch next to me, where if she wanted to get it should could, but she knows to leave it alone until I tell her it's okay. I also make them wait to eat. I put the food in the bowl then on the floor and tell them to wait, they know they can't eat it until I say so. I normally only make them wait less than a minute, but I bet it's an eternity to them. 3.) A way to pitbulls heart, like most dogs, is through their stomach. A tired pit,(long walk, 30min ball chasing session, etc) right before a meal is a prime canidate for training. You can get her to do just about anything at that time with a little work, and some cat treats.
