I'm having this issue where my dog will decide suddenly that she does not want to go in a given direction no matter what I do. I sometimes take her for errand walks where I need to get to a particular location, but I have had to give up because of her stubbornness. At first I thought it might be pain related (she has arthritis) but as soon as we turn around/ go her way she is playful, jumpy and wants to run. She is 11y, 55lbs boxerxbeagle. I have tried waiting it out, dropping the leash and walking away but she calls my bluff and just sits there. I have tried treats too, but don't want to get in the habit of bribing her to go where I want.
Help!
