Recall
Your dog comes back when you’re worth more than whatever it’s just found. I build that up in stages, starting somewhere quiet, until it holds up with other dogs about.

The video Dougie's owner sent me
A recall that brings Dougie the whole way back and parks him between his owner's legs. Filmed on an ordinary walk, with no trainer anywhere near, and sent over afterwards.

A long recall across open ground, then a sit that holds for nearly a minute while I walk all the way back to him.

Tell me as much as you can about your dog and what's been happening. I read every enquiry myself and usually reply within a day or two.
