Living, walking, and having fun with dogs is one of the best and most rewarding things you can do. But, there are some issues. Dog stops walking and won’t move is one of those issues. It can be extremely annoying and it looks like your pet is really stubborn. However, this isn’t the case. As a matter of fact, there are a few reasons why your dog will do this and you need to act properly, to correct the problem. Of course, you need to know all about these reasons first.

Dog Stops Walking And Won’t Move. Reasons Explained.

He isn’t used to the leash

Dog stops walking and won’t move issue is common on puppies or small dogs who are still to be leash trained. Wearing a leash is not natural and some dogs need a lot of time to get used to this. That’s why you need to train your pet in the house and your backyard first and then walk with him on the street. 

Start by him wearing a collar for a few hours and gradually increase the duration until he is perfectly comfortable with this. Give him treats when he comes to you and when he behaves properly. 

His gear is extremely uncomfortable

This is another reason why your dog will just stop walking and he may even lie down on the street. If he wears uncomfortable gear, he will be in pain and he will be annoyed. He can’t do anything so he will lie down. 

Always make sure that the collar and the leash for your dog are comfortable, easy to wear, and come in the right size. For some dogs, a harness is a much better option. It is far more comfortable and comes with added safety.

Your pet is tired

Yes, dogs can get tired as well. They do need a lot of time and physical activity to reach this level but it may happen. Almost always, regardless of the breed, age, and all the rest, when a dog is tired, he will stop or lie down and won’t move. Once he gets his energy back, he will start walking. But, he will stop walking after 10 minutes. 

There is no simple and fast fix here. Your dog didn’t have physical activity for a long period of time so he doesn’t have stamina. You need to provide him plenty of exercises and also an area where he can run. In certain cases, he may need to lose a few pounds of weight. Keep in consideration that if your dog is older, he may have breathing issues so you do need to keep things even slower.

Due to injury

This may sound like an obvious reason, but it does happen in most dogs and their owners are not aware of that. We are talking about smaller injuries to the paws or nails. These are extremely difficult to see but they are painful, especially when your pet is walking. Examine the paws of your pet and try to find any injuries to the paw or the nails. If there are any, make a trip to a vet or let your dog recover.

Don’t forget that this can happen at any given moment and that it is possible to have a foreign object inside the paw. These wounds are very small and they do not look severe, but they are extremely painful and annoying.

He doesn’t want to leave that place

Here we have one issue that happens only when your dog has a lot of fun and he doesn’t want to end. For instance, you two are at a park playing. When the time comes to go home, he will stop and won’t move. As you can see, he enjoys it here and he doesn’t want to go home. This is one of those situations where you can see how much dogs are similar to humans. 

Try to make your pet believe you will go home without him. Of course, always stay close to him. Throw him a treat in the direction where your home is or where you want to go. You can also carry him for a few feet and try again.

You have an anxious dog

Dogs may suffer from anxiety just like humans. There are countless reasons why this happens. For instance, we can see rescue anxiety, separation anxiety, generalized anxiety, and many more. Your pet is probably scared and annoyed by certain things. He will be scared as well and in return, he will stop walking. The best example is a dog who hears construction work and stops walking.

In this case scenario, you will need to do a few things. Do not yell to your dog. Tell him ‘’come on boy’’ or etc. and gradually pull the leash. Don’t rush him and give him time to rest and adapt. But, you will still have to find the cause of that anxiety and correct it. 

Your pet is scared

If you have a dog who wasn’t properly socialized when he was a puppy, you are in a big mess. You will have a dog who is scared of almost anything and who doesn’t want to move when you walk him. This usually happens when you want to walk him outside in an unknown environment. It is a time-consuming issue to correct.

You need to start slow and help your pet get confidence and realize that the outdoor world is safe and great. You can also start very slowly and move around your home, with his friends. Ignore bad behavior as much as you can until your pet gets his confidence and he is not afraid to walk outside. 

The final word

What if your dog stops walking and won’t move no matter what you do? It means that there is an issue, a problem present and as always, it needs to be solved. Here, we have presented to you the top 7 reasons why this happens and also what to do for each one. It is an easy matter to solve once you know the main cause.
