The Really Reliable Recall is having your dog come immediately when called, the 1st time you call him, no matter what he is doing. It works at a distance when he is with other dogs, greeting other people, chasing squirrels or sniffing in holes. He doesn’t think, he doesn’t decide, he just comes to you. It’s not your everyday recall that you use countless times/day.
This is your emergency recall: the one you use when you need an instant response. It keeps your dog safe and gives you peace of mind.This skill is one that is developed with consistent work and repetition. A ‘knee-jerk’ response, one that is automatic, takes time to develop. This class will give you the foundation needed to create that really reliable recall.
Regardless of our vision of how our dog will act or perform, a solid foundation is critical. This foundation must be built upon the dog feeling confident in whatever we are asking it to do. The dog needs to understand and trust the process. We cannot ‘assume’ that he ‘knows it’. Dogs always do the BEST they can with the EDUCATION they are given in the ENVIRONMENT we are asking them to perform in. All of Anything’s PAWSable classes are designed to build layers of understanding for your dog to help him be more successful.
