At your local dog park.

He's a little too pampered. :/

You have to remember that he's a dog. He can't make the big decisions.
Don't ask him if he wants to go for a walk. Put the leash on him and go.
Shorten the leash by sliding your hand down until it is about 8 inches from his collar - or whatever feels comfortable for you. Make him stay at your side. You set the pace and make him keep up with you. If he tries to pull away just keep going. You may have to tug on the leash a few times but eventually he will get the hint that when you walk, he walks too, and he goes where you are going.

Be The Pack Leader!
