tsteve9999 456 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Don't walk over to her, she has to come to you. Get yourself some treats, I use cat biscuits because they are small, and offer her a couple when you call. She'll soon cotton on that coming to you makes sense. Tom.

sandymere 8,263 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 As above with the treats but also make coming to you a fun thing, ie lots of excitment and fuss, turn and run aways etc, basically make it a game so it has a good reason to come. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ratattack 111 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Walk the other way calling the dog and when the dog comes reward it with a treat and fuss. repeat as required till it sinks in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
