How To Stop Your Dog Running Away! - Perfect Recall

[@willathertoncaninetraining]

Making sure you dog comes back to you when you call is so important and can be achieved with simple steps that you can find right here in this free course: waacademy.link/iRwhN3

I need to work on this technique with my dog. She’s stubborn about recall when she’s distracted by something more interesting.

[@va1445]

You are not alone in this!

[@Pollllz]

Mine too. He’s only 7 months old though so still time to learn how to do this.

[@josephandreuccetti3706]

Right. I want her to be herself, but she must obey. Thats it.

[@susangarvey9415]

This guy is about 90% responsible for my dogs training. I'm working on recall at the moment, I'm a bit concerned about her ego though, the only thing that seems to work is when I tell her to come and show me her beautiful face😂!

[@billmorley4134]

Same as my spaniel and keeps running of whenever not a secure area and worry one day will get hit by a car so can’t trust her now

[@ResonantFrequency]

Your videos have been great for teaching my dog many things because of the fact that you explain the underlying mechanism of how the training conditions the dog to do what you want. Every dog has a different demeanor and motivations but I've found that once you know your dog and you understand how the training is supposed to work you can adapt each routine to suit them. I'm going to try to adapt this to my dog, I think it will be tricky since she is mostly motivated by tug of war and fetch already but she comes unprompted for those. She is also highly motivated by new people though I think that will lessen at least a bit by the time she is a year old. In order to make this work I took her favorite toy away (a frisbee she likes to chew and play fetch with) and I've started calling her proactively from out of sight. I'm hoping this alteration will change the association from seeing the toy and getting excited and to getting excited by the call itself in anticipation of seeing the toy.

It’s easier - just learn here by playing. Sit wait and come (here) and reward the coming/here with words. When the dog doesn’t do it with disattraction- just stop the walk - go home - put him in his bed and ignore him. In the evening only give him a walk on the leash. Keep repeating and the training too - that’s it! Every dog will learn, they get a nice life when they listen 😉 some just have a hard few weeks - this is really effective if the dog disobeys. It’s the most important thing for a dog to understand that he follows you and not opposite - treats is difficult as it works but has absolutely no effect in challenging moments - more hoping that the dog obey. However, making dogs to obey without treats is more effective. You can give my dog a rump steak but he won’t touch it when I say no. Same when he plays and I call his name firmly by here!!! 2 - 5 seconds he is around the corner. Walks next to me without leash- safe for other dogs and the society. However dogs I dogsit who got trained with treats are addicted to them and do everything if they are around but nothing because they obey you 😢 which finally is a threat to society and other dogs - a dog needs a leader. I cant emphasise this enough. The dog needs to understand that his life is miserable when not obey your commands are serious in a firm tone. Dog education is not just being the nicest person on the planet - it’s being responsible for a safe society and therefor it’s mandatory that your dogs absolutely obey your commands!

[@Ver927]

I think you are totally right. I 'm now dealing with a dog who follows me every where and listens very well EXCEPT when he has a trigger like sheep, cat, a sound somewhere, then he is offff and runs away! Getting very pissed and ignore him for a few hours does not help. He needs more i think. I am probably too quik with giving him love and attention again as i feel quilty or not Nice etc So i will be more firm, as hard as it is. Thank you

[@DrBiogas]

@@Ver927 try to be gentle and firm! You can also try the command stop or leave it - however it’s so important to correct immediately! Try a long leash when the trigger comes - a loud command and if there is no reply, you need to correct immediately! I promise you, do it 5 times and correct strongly. The dog will hear the command and follow, because there is a consequence 😍 Dog training isn’t always treats and love…..especially when u have a strong minded one 😂🙏✌️

[@fenixmaker]

Thanks for the free Rapid Recall course, i am now doing the corridor training for a view days and my dog is doing realy well, next on the list is to get me one of those pavlov's whistle and start training with it, thanks Will :)

what do you think of beckman's "go get method'??

[@FerbyCW]

I really am not sure how to teach my 2 year old high energy golden retriever the perfect recall even though I understand the motivators and such. His biggest motivator are simply other dogs and no amount of treats, praises or head scratches will ever change that. Ive been trying to be as awesome for him as possible when teaching these things and it kinda works when we are in an area with no other dogs around. But once he sees a dog, especially a female one I might as well not exist. I understand teaching the perfect recall might be easy when your dogs favourite thing is a tennis ball. But other dogs? And especially female dogs, they dont even have to be in heat for him to go absolutely crazy. No one has been able to help me with this, not even professionals Ive seen in the past. I love my dog. But its not easy going on a nice walk with him, when he gets so easily distracted by other dogs and when not on a leash, he darts straight to them. I just wish there was SOMETHING he would value more than running to other dogs.

[@TedcoDogs]

Have you tried a longline with him? So he feels like he has that freedom but you still have control whilst practising especially with other dogs in the distance. Are you reserving extra special treats/toys only for his recall? And is he an entire male? I work at a dog daycare and a lot of the young entire males will constantly go to dogs and not listen to us one bit, even when they used to come to us when called.

[@lonewolfsurvival3453]

Long lines are an awesome tool for recall training. They offer the dog an appropriate amount of freedom to roam, while also allowing you peace of mind in knowing that you can just step on the line, check them or reel them in if they misbehave. Great safety net to use, until proper respect and trust is established.

I have a 13 yr old Treeing Walker Coonhound, a 6 yr of American Foxhound and a 10 mo old Chocolate Lab/Walker/Plott hound going though massive adolescence. All my girls are spayed and rescues. Even though I’m very motivated, the wildlife and other triggers are deviation from my commands. Holly, the senior Treeing Walker, is a wonderful girl, the other two hunt a rattlesnake in the yard. Yesterday, “leave It” worked, but the desire to hunt, overwhelms my commands. Any other suggestions. Nancy

Could you do this with a stubborn corgi

[@jaxx_the_puggle]

Mine is very food motivated but over the field he’s still not got good recall. He does occasionally but mostly not. Especially if he sees a dog before I do. Then he won’t come back at all 😬

[@DrBiogas]

Read my comment - teach him this way

[@newjones1754]

I don't really believe stuff like this works with my Kangals. There just a different kind of dog.

[@sandymcdaniel3926]

[@Privatereporter5050]

I have tried all of this. Everything, every trick, every training idea and my dog gets outside in my fenced yard and wont' come in. He is a 1 year old English setter who runs away no matter what I try. The only person he listens to is my spouse. He has been outside for three hours and he comes to the door and then runs away. I go outside, he runs away. I get frustrated and just leave him out there but I need to leave for appointments or to go to work and can't get him inside.

[@CeIesta]

I'm sorry but, if there is children I simply disappear in my dog's eyes. I can't be more awesome than a kid even with food. She just love play with kids. When a kid cuddle her she is the happiest doggo in the world. Unfortunately I don't have kids in my pocket to reward her when she obey

[@Curious.Badger]

Gonna try this with my husky. She breaks out of the house and then we have to chase her around the park and doesn't listen.

I can't believe you now seem to avoid addressing the fact that these techniques don't work for high prey drive dogs. They need ecollar training. You've said it in the past but seem to avoiding it recently. Very disappointing
