The Recall Should Be Practiced CONSTANTLY!!!

Does your dog respond immediately to your recall command?  If the answer is “no” you you should set up an appointment so I can help.  Is it that your dog doesn’t “know” his or her recall command (come, front, here, etc…)?  Or does he refuse it?

I cannot stress how important it is that your dog responds instantly and urgently.

Now is the time of year when all of the small animals are out and about and the recall will be tested!

Often people will tell me they don’t practice the recall using their special command (or drop dead command, as I like to call it) because they were told to only use it in an emergency.  My response is that if you don’t practice it regularly and often your dog won’t respond when there is a true emergency!

 

Look at all of these critters that will put your recall to the test!  Please take the time to practice regularly and if you need help just call!squirrel

Remember, training helps keep your dogs SAFE!  Practice, practice, PRACTICE forever!
