Taz-n-Lily 62 Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 I have been using the gundog whistle on our cocker who is 7 and he is a hundred percent in the house and gets a reward when he comes. I have started to use it when we are out and about also but not over doing it and so far he has just swung round and come straight back. I think the whistle helps obvisouly to take the emotion out of your voice which he tends to just blank when we are out because he senses my frustation other wise. I will phase out the treats eventually I use a gundog whistle on my dog too. It works, but the recall is far from perfect - dog comes in maybe three times out of five. I go with the others who said it is her age. Pups have short attention spans, and there is a lot of interesting things out there for a pup too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
