When she was smaller, she also would sit on the sidewalk or street while I tried to cajole her, or just laid down and ignored me. Now I have the opposite problem - she pulls and I fly. My husband took her for a walk the other day, and he said he could barely handle her. Especially when he passed other dogs or just people out walking, because she wants to visit. I think I will try the harness suggestion, it sounds excellent.
