Some tips to leash train our dogs?

We have a five-month labrador / Plott mix dog that we want to start leash training out. We love hiking, biking, running, and exploring and want to join us in some of our organized tours in many places near us allow, because we live in a rural area. He has been through basic obedience (sit, stay, wait, come with a lot of things, and is the beginning of the canine kind AKC good citizen.) She is very intelligent and learns quickly. When we take our dog park on 1.5 acres, she always comes when called and looked after us often. We appreciate the advice you can share on how to successfully complete the training without a leash. We both had many dogs, but never off leash trained one of them, because they were "dogs of the city" We have also heard that dogs hunting dogs follow their noses and can not succeed without leaving cantidates off. Any advice from experience on how to get your habit?

Personally, I think the e-collar (formerly known as the shock collar) training is the only reliable way to keep a dog without a leash and remember reliably even under the most distracting. Your class instructor CGC disagree with the use of an e-collar, but should be able to recommend a trainer who specializes in it. I spent about a month of training my dog in a long line and work my way top-leash training, and I'm very glad I did! Twice in the last three weeks for the deer appeared unexpectedly and e-collar was the only thing left of my hunting dog of the same. Today, e-collars are not as old, and training methods are too different. I believe that e-collars human being when used correctly and Life Savers.
