Recall

Recall, or the ability to come when called, is not just a training exercise. It’s a crucial aspect of your dog’s safety and well-being. A reliable recall ensures that owners can manage their dogs in various situations, preventing them from running into danger or causing disruptions. It also fosters a stronger bond between the dog and the guardian, enhancing trust and communication and making you feel responsible and caring.

By teaching a dog a solid recall, guardians can allow their pets more freedom while maintaining control during outdoor adventures and in social settings.

Reward-based dog training is practical and fun for both you and your dog. This method uses reward-based, force-free, positive reinforcement, where the dog is rewarded with food, praise, or play for promptly returning when called. By associating coming when called with enjoyable rewards, dogs learn to perceive responding to their owner’s voice as beneficial and worthwhile.

This approach motivates the dog to comply and strengthens the bond between you and your dog through positive interactions. Reward-based training emphasises consistency and patience, gradually building up the dog’s responsiveness and reliability in their recall abilities.
