How a recall plan is built

  • A distinct cue word that is used only for coming.
  • High-value rewards that are worth leaving fun for.
  • Practice on a long line before any off-leash work.
  • A rule to never call your dog for something unpleasant.
  • Gradual increases in distance, noise and temptation.

Good questions

Before you begin.

Can every dog learn a recall?

Most can learn something useful. Reliability depends on breed tendencies, history and how much practice happens.

Should I let my dog off leash?

Only where it is allowed and secure, and only when the skill holds on a long line first. Check posted rules.

What if my dog ignores me outdoors?

You have probably moved too fast. Return to an easier setting and rebuild.

What is a good recall reward?

Something your dog finds amazing, such as a favorite food, a tug game or a chase together.
