	Hi all, I got my first dog, a one year-old female, about two months ago. She is so headstrong and STUBBORN! I'm wondering if you have any training advice for me. Specifically about leashes. My vet told me that field dogs, even very well-trained field dogs, are not off-leash dogs because if they are on something's trail, they won't respond to you or come back. Piper just can't focus on a leash long enough to even respond to being reinforced with treats. Any advice you have would be appreciated! Thanks.
