Another Walking Trick - Leash Behind the Back

Sometimes I forget this, but another weird trick when Ruki is being stubborn and pulling all over the place while walking is to hold the leash behind my back.

It works like magic. I think that maybe when I hold the lead in front of me and across my body (holding it in my right hand while she's on my left), she feels a little too close and sees the lead, which she doesn't like.

When the leash is behind me, she has some more slack in the lead, and I think it feels more that she's following me rather than the lead pulling her.
