I wish I had an answer for you. I have the same problem, well kinda. Deegan is 4.5 months old. He doesn't necessarily run right away, but if we do let him out without a leash (say in the front yard), he goes straight for the mulch and bark that is in the garden. He knows he's not supposed to be chewing on it, so when we got to take him away from there he starts to run from us. Which pretrifies me because you never know when I car might comeby. Or he may run if he sees a squirrel. Not to sure how he would react to another dog walking by???
But it would be so nice not to have to worry so much about him taking off. For now we aren't letting him loose anymore. |
