Well, no. You either use R+ and treat when he's in the right place and ignore when he's in the wrong or you can use R- by standing still when he pulls (removal of what he wants - to walk forward) or you can let him self correct by turning around and walking the other way (I don't know what that is, it's P+ but self-induced.)
But saying "walk nice" and then punishing him for not walking nice when he doesn't know what walk nice means isn't fair to him.

as for the house training, I have no yard. at all. my house takes up most of the square footage on the lot.
I'll continue to perservere guys!

initially, we started with all positive for the walk, however, there are times where he will not take the food(and he is on a restricted allergy trial diet, so our options are somewhat limited), the distraction is too high, and he will not listen.
