Yeah,  and some of us aren't 20 and as strong as we once were, but my
retired guide's pull was just too subtle; I think she pulled a bit more in
class, but she got less confident for some reason, so the pull lessened.
	AWs long as Huck doesn't drag me off a cliff <big grin> I like the
moderate pull and the fact that, unless I stop him, my tentativeness--not
sure of a location such as a curb or driveway--he doesn't lose his
confidence.

sometime a harder pull is harder to handle is your wrists or soulder bother
you and it also depends on how far in frontthe dog it.
