Wolfhunter vMHK - On a short leash achievement

Hey y'all trying to complete the vMHK achievements specifically "On a short Leash" and haven't found an obvious way to not take damage from the dogs. It says no damage from "restrained" dogs which makes me think that we have to break them free each time while tank kites one around and then making them cower?

This seems quite intense for a 5 point achievement though so I am wondering if I am missing something really obvious?

Thanks in advance.

    "restrained" is actually a debuff put on one of the wolves. You can control which wolf gets the debuff by having the tank taunt one and pull it to where the boss is located. The other wolf (the one the tank didnt taunt) should then be pulled to the wall by the chain mechanic (the wolves share a chain so when one is pulled far away from the wall the other has to go towards the wall). At this point just range the restrained wolf down first.

    Edit: I should add that this starts the timer for a mechanic called "time to switch" which triggers the wolves to pounce at you if you dont kill one of them fast enough.

    how? we kept trying and we still fail it. I taunt the left add, Ary, and stand on boss. The right one, Zel, stays at wall. Group kills Zel and then focuses boss, Ary dies in cleave, nobody got hit by Zel, only tank got hit by Ary cuz it's the taunted one, we didn't reach the mechanic cuz we pushed boss as 3 dds, non hardmode, but still not getting it.

    edit: so that way definitely did not work, what we did was have a kiter to kite the leash wolves around while the rest of us just focused the boss and we got it this way, everyone just avoids getting hit by leash wolves while kiter runs with one
