THIS Is How To Get a PERFECT Recall With Your Dog

Getting a perfect recall command with your dog is not that hard as long as you have a good method. The biggest mistake people make teaching their dog how to come when called is not practicing it enough before it really matters. Don't just take your dog out to a field and hope for the best! Start by training them in the house, then the yard and then in a field with a long line. Once they do well you can graduate to no line.
The dog in this video is a French Bulldog puppy, but this same method works with any breed of course. If you have any questions drop a comment below!
The first step to get your dog to come is spending the time teaching them what the command means. People often think their dog knows come, but it is just a game and the dog doesn’t understand the expectations.
The next step of getting your dog to come is to teach your dog not to run away. Many dogs don’t understand this at the beginning of the process!
The last step to get your dog come to you is to stop selective listening. They need to learn consequences and they need to know that you will be 100% consistent!

I have a Malinois an Alaskan Husky. Supposed runners. From day one I walked them around the house over and over They always are watching for ME. They don't let me get out of there sight. They are running around all the time out side. It is an awesome thing

Our male Akita has the same name 😀 Have had limited success off leash with all of them and most source material simply state you leash. Thanks for Vid 😎👍

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 16 күн бұрын

I love the name! Sully feels like it really fits for an Akita. One of my personal dogs is a part Akita and her name is Sunny. Don't give up on off leash training! Running off leash is the greatest gift we can give our dogs and every dog is capable of being trained off leash. If you have any questions or get stuck somewhere in the training process let us know and we can give you some guidance.

I trained my other dogs using balanced training, and then I bought into all positive training. Well, with the breeds I have had, guess what? That doesn't work. I am refreshing myself on balanced methods and using them guess what me and my dog are making huge improvements. I have seen other videos on off lease correction that did not feel like it was going to deliver the message I felt my dog needed. I love this; it feels right to me. thank you

Thanks for taking the time to post this comment! A lot of people try purely positive and then assume their dog can never be trusted off leash in a new area and give up. I'm glad you found some methods that work for you and are giving it a go. Off leash training is the greatest gift you can ever give your dog!

Do you have the other end of the long line attached to anything? I am afraid to let my dog off leash as we have too many distractions for my dog Molly. No fencing

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 15 күн бұрын

Great question Victoria! We don't have the line attached to anything in this video. The line is 25 feet which is long enough to stop Sully if needed (he isn't super fast 😁). If your pup Molly is a runner I would just use a much longer line. We recommend using a line twice as long as the distance you plan on letting them get from you. This leaves a large margin of error just in case. Many of our clients use 100 foot lines when they are early in the training process. Let us know what other questions you have!

How did you become a dog trainer? Is there schooling or classes for this? Im asking because its my dream

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 11 күн бұрын

There are some dog training schools that make sense for certain situations. It is important though to find a school that trains the type of trainer you want to be. Do you want to do dog sports? Protection? Nose work? Help solve behavioral problems? Not all schools excel at each of these things. We train all of our trainers in house and have a training program designed for obedience and solving behavioral issues. I always recommend volunteering at a humane society as a good first step. I hope this helps and reach out with any questions!

How do i keep consistency whrn there are 6 people in my household thst take turns caring for them? Im the main caregiver but sometimes someone else will take them out, including my 10 yr old daughter. Do i have to also train everyone in the house?

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 12 күн бұрын

I love that question Lynette! I would absolutely get everyone in the house on the same page. A lot of our clients will watch our puppy video playlist with their kids to make sure that everyone is on the same page and understands the whys and not just the hows. None of our videos contain swear words or inappropriate content for exactly this reason.

I have a German shepherd/lab mix. She understands the command And she will sometimes come when I have a treat but often ignores it if she's interested in something else. Even when we have her on a long line in the yard to try and work with Her she will take off and we cannot catch her if we go to walk up to her To do a correction

@BrynnNorquay 12 күн бұрын

What do you do when your dog turns to you after you say no? he starts to come to me after the verbal correction so I don't get to the leash tug stage. And do I praise this or no?

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 12 күн бұрын

That is a great question Brynn! I would suggest not giving any praise after the word "no" during this process. The reason is that some dogs will learn to push the boundaries and will start ignoring you until they realize that you are very serious and are close to getting them. If I tell a dog "no" during this process and then they immediately start to come I will generally still give the three corrections but very soft and not stern at all. The goal is that they understand that "no" means you are unhappy with their response.

Great video. How long should each session be roughly? I have an 11 month old Brittany and he is very smart but also very free spirited and stubborn 😅

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 16 күн бұрын

Great question Ben! We like the sessions to be fairly short (around 15 minutes) but sometimes the dog's actions will make the session longer. If you train for 15 minutes and feel like you made progress I would stop and then play for a while. If he is being stubborn and it takes thirty minutes to finally get him listening then I would be comfortable with a longer session. We also like to modify session length based upon the goal. Teaching is different than proofing (practicing known commands around distractions). Generally teaching sessions are short and proofing sessions are longer. We have quite a few other videos on come that will be helpful to you. There is a playlist of them on our channel. Let us know what other questions come up!

maybe u can give me some advice.. I rescue a black german shepperd dumped in a field...23.5 Pounds, in pretty bad shape and very scare. Took her home...surprise no flees which led me to believe that she was in a crate and starving. She does not allow me to touch her back seems she is in pain when i do that. anyhow...that was 3 weeks ago. she is very scare, does not listen when call nor get calm at the time that i serve food to all my dogs. She is not food aggressive which is wonderful, very intelligent and figures out any trick that i want to pull on her to catch her when she is not coming and need her inside the home asap. How do i train a fearful dog, with supreme intelligence, any sudden movements makes her run and fear sinks in again. She trust me a little but not to the point that she will obey my commands. She also studies the other dog's behaviors which is good since i have the trained...with the exception of a boy that i am taking care off...who do not want to be inside the home and does not obey when i ask him to get inside...so she naturally picked that up and now she does the same thing. I deal with fearful dogs before but nothing like this girl...is the extreme and i want to help her. I ignore her time to time so she can see that i will not harm her. She already destroyed several items in the house and i am using a muzzle at night so i can sleep and wake up to a safe house LOLOL and no destruction anywhere. well any tips are welcome. Patience i have plenty...so dealing with an extreme case is a new territory for me. thanks.

It sounds like you have a tough case on your hands! Has she been seen by a vet? The issue with her back could be medical or behavioral and it is hard to say which without a vet seeing her. If it is behavioral we create calm situations where we can slowly show them there is nothing to be fearful of. The first thing we do with any dog is teach them to walk calmly on leash. This is a great trust building exercise and is also a calming technique to fall back on when needed. Once she knows how to heel properly you can start to slowly reach towards her back while you are heeling. Since she has a job at that point and her brain is busy you will almost certainly see a lower level of fear than if you tried this while hanging out in the house. Don't press it too far the first session and just have the goal of making a little progress each time you do it. Regarding the running from you, I would have a long line on her anytime she is in the yard. This will allow you to pick up the line and gain control any time that you need to. Also, I would be very careful leaving a muzzle on overnight. A cage is generally a much safer option and is usually less frustrating to the dog. Let us know what follow up questions you have!

My dog loves to play chase and run in circles to entice me to play in the backyard. When he decides he wants to play chase, he ignores my call. How do you reel in a dog who is running and there's NO way I can catch him? He also loves to play fetch, but recently, he started hanging on to the ball and not returning with it, or not following my "drop it," "leave it," commands. In that case, after he ignores me several times, I just turn and go into the house. He drops that ball in a heartbeat and looks at me... so he knows exactly what he was doing wrong.

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 16 күн бұрын

Hey Joanie! Have you tried using a long line on him? Once a dog has developed the habit of running from you I would suggest having a long line on every time he goes in the yard. This allows you to call him, step on the line if he runs from you and then calmly walk all the way towards him and grab close to the collar to correct. It is hard to explain some things in writing so please let me know if you want any clarifications or more detail!

Understood! We see that a lot. I generally recommend people master perfect loose leash walking with their dog before off leash come for exactly that reason. Does your dog "heel" on a loose leash around other dogs? If not, I can suggest some videos to get you started.

@glanee5487 10 күн бұрын

@@SuburbanK9DogTraining THank you! She will heel on a loose leash if she started out that way first alone with me and we are walking through town or something. I can tell her to "focus" or "leave it" when we see other dogs. But if we start out going to somewhere where she usually runs and she sees a dog before I get her collected, she just can't focus or listen at all. Or like the other day, she rode with another dog in the car to our spot and there was no getting her attention when it was time to get out of the car and when we were out and about, no listening at all to the "come" command at the various times I called her because this companion was with us. (Also not listening.)

@SuburbanK9DogTraining 9 күн бұрын

I would suggest starting each off leash training session with an on leash training session. When you get to the park I would keep her on leash and train for as long as it takes to get her listening perfectly. If that takes the majority of your park time it is ok, because each session will be shorter and shorter until you don't need to do much on leash training at all anymore. If you have her off leash at the park and she loses her composure I would then just leash her up again and train until she is calm even if it takes 30 minutes. I hope this is helpful and definitely reach out with any follow up questions!
