\r\n <!-' + '- google_ad_section_start -' + '->It seems alot of young dogs go through this phase of not listening and testing the boundaries with things like recall at around this age. I have walked 2 dogs from puppyhood and went through the same thing with them not listening. I put them both back on an extension lead, and continued to practise recalling them anyway, treating and praising the dog all the time for coming back. With one dog, this phase only lasted a couple of months, with the other is was a good 6-7 months before I could trust him off-lead again.
\n
\nA few other things I learnt about recalls over the years.......
\n
\nHow many times are you calling the dog back to you? and are you calling the dog back to you or just calling his name and not giving a follow-up command, eg, "come"? The most I call any dog is twice, I give the dog the benefit of the doubt that it just may not have heard me the first time, then I go over and get the dog......don\'t waste your time calling and calling him, all the dog learns is that he doesn\'t need to listen the first time because you will keep on yelling anyway.
\n
\nAre you calling him when his nose is busy on the ground? Many dogs do not hear if they are engrossed in a scent or smell.
\n
\nWhat treats are you using? - good quality treats such as cooked meats, esp liver, kidney, heart are often very desirable as opposed to dry biscuits, also rotate the treats so they do not become predictable.
\n
\nOne dog I walk never comes back when I say "come" so I use the word \'treat\' she runs back fast now.......
\n
\nYou could try whistle training instead maybe?<!-' + '- google_ad_section_end -' + '-><!-' + '- AMS SECOND IN POST -' + '->\r\n

Practising some obedience training is fun if there is a reward in it and it helps to increase your dog’s positive view of a recall. Practice recalls on walks. Randomly call your dog, give them a reward and send them off again. Call them, clip on the lead, reward them and let them go again.

Recall
Luca my 9 month old German Shepherd has been ignoring me when i call him at the dog park(we are always alone when we go so no distractions, and its not new because we go every day). He comes when we are at home, and when we are in our yard. But when it comes to the dog park he just does not want to listen and this is a big problem. We dont want to get kicked out of the dog park. He is not food motivated so using treats during training does not really work. And he looses interest in toys fairly quickly. I have been reading and reading up on this subject and have been consulting Ceasar Milan ad Victoria Stilwell on things I should do. I was wondering what everyone here has to say before we formulate a trainging schedule to correct this problem.
