I am guilty of having a dog like that, the unfortunate thing is that I know what would probably work for him and I just dont practice enough.
We went to puppy school with my first dog and she told us its all about the treats. You must find the most scrumptious treat on the face of the earth and practice COME! Scream come as if the house were on fire, make a huge deal about it. Only use it in emergencies and when she comes, give her a big yummy stash and pet and pet and love her like you never have before.
Like I said, come is supposed to be for emergencies only, other times, use 'Chanel'.
That's my morsel of advice...I might even start using it. Luckily I have a picket fence with concrete underneath or my dog would have major problems. |
