Advice needed

Hi everyone, im having problems with the recall of my Lurcher, she is 7 months old greyhound/deerhound/collie/bull she's come back to me the odd time when she was about 4 months old but she just blanks me now so I was just wondering if anyone would kindly give me some advice, she seems keen enough to chase but I don't dare let her off just incase she doesn't come back. Thanks for any advice in advance.

this has work for me in the past.

 

when out with your dog just on the casual walk, dog of the lead. Keep calling the dog back now and again, then mack a fuss/praise the dog when it re-calls and after time the dog will learn, when you call it just to come back.

 

Its still a pup yet keep spending time with it and it will learn. Its just keen thats all. atb with the dog.

let it off the lead where there is nobody about and play with her sounds like you have not bonded with her 100%, or just sit down with a ball or toy in the middle of the field she will come to you and when she does pleanty of praise and play with her ( don't be a borering f***er) that could be how she see you if you have to make daft noises make em, don't give a f**k who about they will give you a wide birth they will think you are a nutter, but your dog will think you are great.

Thanks guys il give it a go with her. Do you think it's best to take her out on her own and not with my other dog, just so it's me and her? Thanks again :-)

just you and her you want her to bond with you, you are pack leader then when she is responding to you, then take your other dogs with you, it will not happen over night, it will be hard work but keep at it.

Brothers got a laguna whippet pup

 

He seems to be frightened of letting it off.

 

Trouble is the less it has its freedoms now the worse it will go on recall.

 

Better taking them places where there are no other distractions.

 

Take him out as much as you can.

 

Even when you are in the garden let him have is head then every now and again call him in and give him a fuss.

 

Should help on the bonding up as well.

 

 

At the moment i have been taking the whippet out with my two.

 

There recall is good so he just follows them and comes in.

 

Trouble is the pup as started to bond up with me.

 

Let him have is head somewhere quiet and dont start worrying and calling him in no sooner than hes off the lead
