if your dog doesn't listen to you ask lead and you want perfect recoil like this then I'm going to tell you the three most important things you need to know slowly stay now the first point that you need to understand when it comes to recall is does your dog actually understand recall and the principle is helping your dog understand that either with a command or like I prefer with a whistle your dog knows when they hear that they need to get to you as quickly as possible and when they get to you only amazing things are gonna happen and what that needs to look like is something like this Sully oh boy so they come to you enthusiastically excited because they know that every time they come to you good things are going to happen and that's the essence of point one does your dog understand recall if they don't we have to start there and build that Foundation before we move on to step two and step three point is the reason your recall either works or doesn't and if you want perfect recall you have to fully grasp this first you have to understand that dogs are motivated by many things yes one of them being you and the rewards you have at your disposal but your dog Also may find chasing squirrels very motivating playing with other dogs very motivating or chasing that cyclist very motivating so when we're out in the real world and your dog is off lead all of those things are what we call competing motivators and in those real life situations your dog will always choose the thing that motivates the most and unfortunately these things that motivate them are often baked into our dogs from their breed genetics and temperament so a high drive working line Labrador like mine Uncle Sully is always going to be highly motivated by birds off in the distance a dachshund is going to be highly motivated to find the scent of ground borrow doing Animals a doberman is going to be highly motivated to scare off unfamiliar people or animals unless you know how to tip those scales of motivation in your favor now the third point is where the magic of recall really happens good boy but before we dive into point three I think it's really worthwhile talking about that recall is a complicated process and to absolutely Master recall yes these three steps are incredibly important but we can go into much more detail about those three steps so that you can truly Master it yourself at home and to help you do that I created a completely free rapid recall course we delve into in more detail and we also give you practical demonstrations and in those practical demonstrations paired with all of the tips and tricks I'm going to teach you is exactly how you will be able to have perfect recall yourself so if you want to check out that course it's completely free of charge there'll be a link down in the description box below but let's get on to that third point the third point is where the magic of recall truly happens and that's tipping those scales of motivation in your favor no matter what and to do that we have to do a combination of raising your motivation levels and where possible decreasing the motivation levels of all those pesky competing motivators but there's good news both are entirely possible and I've helped thousands of people achieve just that and have a whole host of really fun games and training you can do to achieve it a bunch of them are included completely free of charge in my rapid recall course but the biggest mistake I see people make in this department is not making coming back to you an awesome experience if you want your recall to work your dog needs to love coming back to you they need to know that every single time they do something good will happen whether that's a treat whether that's Play Time some physical praise or at least a nice bit of verbal praise but ensure that whether you're out on a walk or simply in your own home if your dog comes to you then you make that a great experience for them a hundred percent of the time so guys remember recall is an ongoing task and it's something that if you put those steps into action you'll have huge success but if you want to learn more that's exactly what that completely free course is all about the link will be in the description box below can't wait to see you there
