Fine Tune Heeling?

My pup is five months old and does fairly well at heeling. But often he wants to creep ahead of me. I tell him to "slow down", which he does and I praise him for it. We will go a ways like that and soon he will creep ahead of me by a few feet. Any suggestions on how I should handle this or...

Brreders/showing dogs - Help
Posted to: News & Entertainment
We looked at corgi puppies today. There were three females and three males. We have a dominant male corgi already.
