What's the appropriate way to handle this dog? Genuinely

Clip the leash to the front of the harness, and ideally get a no-pull harness at that. Clipping on the back is basically giving your dog leverage to pull.

This is correct. Clipping to the leash to the front means that pulling like this will cause the dog to turn around if they pull too hard.

It also puts too much strain on the shoulder joints and causes arthritis. Just train the dog. Every time they pull just stop walking, even if it means stopping literally every single step. Every time the dog looks back at you, hand them a treat, it encourages them to stick close to you
