Do you struggle with your dog recall and focus when out and about? Is your dog interested in the environment more than they are interested in you? Have you tried to put a treat on their nose, call their names multiple times but they just don’t listen? I have created this workshop just for you! Recall training and focus are two things that need to go together as without focus and a dog that is able and willing to pay attention to you, as you are important to their eyes, there is no recall. The way the deliver rewards, the way we behave and act, the value we put into exercises and good habits while training are all important for a successful recall! My recall training program has not failed and for the last 8 years I had dogs that by 7 months old are completely recall trained.

We are thrilled to announce our upcoming workshop on "Recall Revolution” The workshop is tailored to help you achieve a reliable recall with positive reinforcement […]
