Dan25 87 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Still struggling with recall on my pup tried everything she just finds everything more exciting with me she chases anything that moves and she will not give in hunting up all time feel like a proper plank when walking dog at the park and she is just completely blanking you like she is deff is it just her age she nearly 11 months or is it me feel so frustrated feel like giving her a good smack sometimes Quote Link to post
dogmad riley 1,343 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Take her somewhere were it's just you and her and start from scratch no other distractions. Back garden would be a good place to start then somewhere else quite. Also I find just walking off and leaving them they soon come running back atb Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Leash it,how long the leash needs to be is up to the dog,id make sure its recall is undertaken away from other influences,especially a park.Id take it to a place that restricted the dogs movement,an alleyway etc,especially one that's blocked so the mutt as to come back in your direction,initially,then allow the dog the freedom its recall warrants.

Dan25 87 Posted September 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 The most frustrating thing is in the garden she comes perfectly but when there is a large area she's off il start again from scratch see how it goes Quote Link to post

the big chief 3,099 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 I just walked mine on the lead for a while then let them off and walked off from them now every time i shout them they come running but i stay away from parks and playing fields with other dogs around Quote Link to post
Dewclaw69 484 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 my young dog had sort of started to cock a deaf un whilst out with my staff. cured it easy. goes out alone now when free running. road work i take both. you have to make yourself the most interesting thing around. cut the distractions out. 2 Quote Link to post
Giro 2,648 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Try some cooked meats or hot dogs mate.. Make a fuss of the dog, once it clicks reduce the treats and loving Quote Link to post
blackmaggie 3,376 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 like giro says or take her to a empty carpark some where quiet with no distractions or smells and keep everything calm and dont shout and end on a good note and make everything fun so she wants to return Quote Link to post

northwestmitch 9 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Do some basic training nothing over the the top, teach the down postion, worked for me, also scan fields parks for anything that is likely to interest your dog put it on the lead, you could also attach a rope to your lead, keep it slack when the dogs showing interest call it to you, if it does'nt respond, call it again and give the rope a slight jerk and let it go back to slack, if the dog tries to run off jerk the lead quite hard and give the comand come dont drag the dog in to you keep the tension off and call it in when it responds give it lots of praise and a treat ,keep it up for a couple of weeks later on taking it to places were you know theres going to be distractions, when you know you can trust it let it off but not to much distance from you and call it in gradually putting a bit of distance between you.
