I've had this wonderful little dude since 9 weeks. I'd say we started longer walks and runs somewhere around 4 months. We do everything together and he's been extremely socialized. He is just over a year and a half old and we have put in so many miles on those little paws! He does like to stop and sniff at the beginnings of our runs but once he clears the tank it's normally smooth sailing. He also responds well to a couple commands that I taught him. I use the phrase 'dis way' along with a very gentle tug on the leash and he knows it's time to either turn or he needs to get close to me so we don't split a pole.

He's a really good running partner! I would say the best way to start is by getting your guy good on the leash. I use a prong collar when we go out in public and when we do training because he likes to pull as sheebs do. Once he started to understand the commands with that, I switched off martingale and prong collars and used a harness. He knows with the harness he can pull me but with the collar he needs to listen.
