Teaching a puppy to control their natural impulse is an important skill for all dogs. Great bonding time but most of all building trust between owner and dog.
You will use the word ‘wait’ in many different situations and you will see a beautiful response from your dog 😊
Proven 2nd most intelligent breed, wouldn’t expect anything less from this young Mini Poodle to nail this skill 2nd time practiced.
Pup totally trusts his mummy 👏
Puppy training started with this bonny little Mini Poodle.
Making the crate downstairs a happy place to go into, he’s presenting a lovely happy bottom and wagging tail 🥰
First puppy training session with what I can only describe as the smallest puppy I’ve ever met and started training with. A very adorable mini Yorkshire Terrier.
At the end of the first session we started his recall journey with his mummy. Fun times 🥳
Some breeds have a greater inclination, pre-disposed to holding objects, retaining them in their mouth, such as Spaniel types and those from working lines.
Avoid trying to force their mouth open and work with them by positively teaching how to ‘DROP’
RECALL Proofing Stage
Now testing this friendly young lady in sight of dog & human distraction in an open field area. I totally trust the work we’ve done together in these last 7 days.
You don’t need to repeat the recall cue if it’s strong enough. Start taking steps backwards.
I don’t mind that she paused, she made the right choice and was heavily rewarded 🥳
I’ve been living with this young lady for a week, the aim was to strengthen her recall so it became an involuntary response.
There are stages to go through when building a reliable recall with your dog.
It takes a little time to achieve but with patience, consistency & repetition it’s achievable 👍
5 days in, good job young lady 👏
A proper little water pup, having lots of fun this afternoon in a stream in Quorn. I feel another trip tomorrow afternoon coming 🥳.
Her reward for some superb recall practice 🥰
I just love to see dog friends playing 🥳
Magnum ice-cream share time 😋😃
Free time and RECALL maintenance whilst this young man’s mummy is at home with his new human baby sister 🥰
RECALL maintenance with this young man this morning ⭐️
Lovely morning walk with these best friends, followed by a paddle to cool off.
Second recall just in case he didn’t hear me the first time 🥳
What else is better on a hot day 🐶🥳
A little HIDE & SEEK to keep this young energetic boy engaged BOO 👻
Popped round to take this young Goldie for a walk out and a little training practice to finish.
Place - recall - place 👏
It’s important I guide her if needed so she’s always successful 😊
Building a RELIABLE RECALL
Always starts in the home and garden, minimal distraction and increases your dogs engagement.
Proofing stage in the outside environment to follow.
Have lots of fun, be interesting, ‘good’ praise, treat reward.
Good job young lady, mummy and granny 👏
I love receiving training practice vids from clients.
This young King Charles and her mummy are working together & making great progress practicing the skill ‘STAY’.
Superstars 🤩🐶
With this young cocker spaniel for the weekend.
She’s moved on from proofing stage of recall and now in maintenance stage 👏
We’re having a little game off hide & find 🔎😂
Feeling proud of this fella 🥰🐶. Making such good progress with this GSD that is fearful reactive of other humans & dogs.
We are taking a healthy and positive walk following a person with a couple of dogs.
