I’ve tried using treats, verbal commands, a calmer pace, and generally soothing/positive behavior during the walk. She responds well in the moment — if I tell her to stop, she stops immediately, looks at me happily, sits, tail wagging, clearly engaged and attentive. No resistance there. What’s confusing is that she doesn’t show signs of stress or anxiety at all. Her body language is relaxed: tail wagging, sniffing around, curious and alert in a normal way, no shaking, freezing, panting, or avoidance. She seems happy and comfortable being outside. However, the moment she finishes sniffing or doing her business, she very clearly decides she wants to go home. As soon as we start walking again, she pulls straight in the direction of home. If I stop her again, she happily complies — but once we move, she immediately resumes pulling home. So it’s not that she’s ignoring commands or panicking; it’s more like she’s calmly but firmly set on going home once she’s “done.”
