Question About Lead Training
#1
I have a question about teaching goats to lead. I have 2 new packers, one about 11 weeks old and her mother, around a year and a half. I have been training both of them, not just the little one, thanks to encouragement and advise from you all and it is going great. However, I am having some trouble with leading. They do fine on their leads if there is another person with me who they know, and if we are far enough away from home. But if I try to take them somewhere by myself, especially if I try to walk them there from our barn, they become difficult to lead. They are more forceful about pulling to the side of the path to eat stuff, and they will follow me, but only at an absolute snail's pace. Eventually I want to be able to go places on my own with them, but how do I teach them that no matter how few people are leading them they still have to come at a reasonable pace? They both have halters and collars, and they do the same thing no matter which the leash is attached to.
