It's funny you mention walking away because I was watching Animal Planet last night and there was a beagle who'd take off and the trainer said to turn around, get down low and make a lot of noise like what you're doing is so much fun. It did work, he came back to see what was going on! I guess, it's the same idea. Make it more interesting where you are, facing him or back to him and he's sure to come back if you make it exciting. When he does come back always reward him.
