    I have a GWP and we've never been able to let him off leash because he hunts 24/7. You're the only trainer I've ever seen talk about how the sausage is worthless. And I can't exactly carry a raccoon in my pocket either. Can't wait to see future videos about advanced techniques! My GWP listens a little better in the yard and will come for treats but take him to a field where there's game and you no longer exist.

    Excellent. The competing motivators concept explains why I get perfect recall at home, when we are training in the garden and a complete fail on a country walk (I have two pointers).. I would be very interested to see a video of advanced techniques suitable for dogs with strong prey drive.

    The last two sentences describe exactly where we all get into trouble with recall. Those unexpected circumstances where you have your dog off-lead .... and then a higher competing motivator arrives on the scene. Yikes! If I'd known I wouldn't have let my dog off the lead .... but what do I do now? I know I'm going to look a right Charlie trying to call my dog back ... so please Will, what do I do now?

      One of my last ditch efforts is to make a fool out of myself by making crazy noises while running away. Try it out and see if your dog turns and starts chasing you.
      The rationalization for this is that you need to get his attention (noise) and increase your value by moving (more visible), away (no opposition reflex) and engaging the chase instinct and still making noise to add a audible stimulus to the visual one to engage 2 of the dogs 3 remote senses. I don't think, you could engage all 3 senses but if the wind is right you could try to open up one of the most stinkiest treats your pet shop has on offer ;)

    Yes! I can't wait for the advanced tools to train my, maybe working line, Brittany to archive the perfect recall. He's 7 months old now and I get quite a lot of good recalls, to the point that we regularly get compliments from other dog owners.

    My Staffy/Lab/slipped her long check lead (the metal lobster clip opened up right in front of me) in the open field last week. She ran and ran and (unfortunately) was in her glory putting up birds and running free and loving it ...This was the first time ever that she was ever running free (outside of our condo's safe tennis court which we do every morning.) I was terrified she would bolt out into traffic. She would not come back no matter how much I called her to come. (We live in a Township with a leash law, so she has never been free in the field before.) The only way I got her back was to pretend I was in big trouble and cried out "Ginger HELP"..(in a voice that meant I was in trouble) and she came directly to me directly and quickly. I knew not to punish her but rather I gave her training treats for coming back. Your video was helpful.

      That’s my issue! I can’t be more awesome than a friendly dog making ‘let’s play’ signals. Often an owner doesn’t want that dog to play but I end up doing a ‘Fenton!!!’ and flailing to get a leash on her.
      Without BIG distractions her recall is bang-on.

    Perfect recall takes time and patience and somewhere to practice it. Many years ago when we owned a Lab and Springer Spaniel as gun dogs we had no issues calling them back whilst they were running through the undergrowth whilst out shooting. Never failed. Problem now a days is finding areas where you can even practice it outside of your own garden unless you own your own land.

    One of the most important things I have learned since I bought Freddie my Cane Corso/Presa de Canario puppy that I didn't even realize I had been doing wrong with every other dog I've had while growing up and par owning my last dog a Golden Retriever was when I would try to stop a bad behavior by scolding them for the behavior and then to not praise them after they had stopped doing the bad thing. It's OK to scold them (maybe scold isn't the right word, more using disaprooving tone to tell them what they are doing is wrong and to stop or do the behavior you want them to do like stop chewing my shoes and then you need to heap them with praise at least and/or give them a reward like a treat for doing what you wanted them to do. Maggie would act afraid when I berated her for rolling in dead fish when I caught her in the act. I thought that was doing a good job at training her to behave. I had no idea that had I praised her for stopping and returning to me instead that it would have been far easier to get her to do what I wanted her to do and take way less time to do it too. Since I have had Freddy and have been praising her for stopping the negative behavior and doing the desired one training her has been not only more effective but has taken me way less time and effort to achieve. I have also done way more research on Fred's breeds and how to train her properly than I ever did with Maggie. One of the most influential factors for doing so is that if I don't do it the right way with Fred regarding proper socialization and training her is that I could easily create a fear based response from her by using a negative based training method which could lead to a situation that not only endangers myself or another person but also endangers her. Allowing her to dominate me and even lightly bite me (mouthing) as a puppy can lead to her biting someone else. And due to her breed and her eventual adult size and her wary guardian nature to strangers etc... if she would snap at someone or bite them no matter how lightly she does so or if she knocks someone over because I let her jump up on me or others she could easily be at risk of having to be destroyed becaise of it where a dog like a Golden Retriever might get away with something similar. Our Golden Retriever would jump up on people randomly and that behavior was never something we were able to fully curb. I've been way more successful with Freddy at getting her to not mouth and ump on people.

    I love allowing my dog off leash, we train lots everyday she can heel off leash and recall with near 100% success and for the few times when she decides that the other stimulus is better than listening to me she's also trained on an E-collar which makes her 100% successfully and keeps her safe while having fun and playing with me outside

    The answer, for those who want to know: negative pressure of a remote collar. As Will has said, you CANNOT compete with certain competing motivations, negative pressure is therefore ESSENTIAL. If you yourself have jumped onto the bandwagon of “ban shock collars”, I’d suggest doing a little reading…

    Hopefully our trainer will be able to help with that, but at the end of the day he sees it as his job (working line both sides) so I can't be too irritated.
