Training your Dog to Come Back
Why is it important to get your dog to come back?
Getting your dog to come back to you is vital for safety and to give your dog a good quality of life. Dog training classes with us will help you get a good recall. Puppy and dog training classes spend a lot of time focused on this vital aspect of dog training.
Many people have turned up to a puppy class and said, ‘I don’t need to train him to come back, he doesn’t leave my side.’
That’s brilliant but it’s unlikely to last!
Don’t be lulled into a false sense of security, whether you have a puppy or a dog that’s new to you.
In the early days, your dog or puppy may feel a little overwhelmed or uncertain about new environments and may choose to stay close to you. You need to build your dog or puppy’s confidence, that’s important. That will of course help your puppy or dog to feel more confident about leaving your side in the park.
If you haven’t booked your puppy training class, find out what you need to know about classes.
Start at day 1 – teach a solid recall. ‘Fido, COME.’ Make it work. Use good recall training activities.
Think about teaching a STOP command too.
Teaching a solid recall and a STOP command will help to keep your dog or puppy safe but it will also help to keep those around you safe too.
