Reliable Recall Training for Dogs

A strong recall keeps dogs safe. Start small and build confidence.

Steps to train recall

• Use a special cue your dog only hears for recall.
• Reward heavily when your dog comes to you.
• Practice in low-distraction spaces first.

Add distractions slowly

• Move to fenced areas or long-line practice.
• Increase distance and distractions gradually.
• Always reward success.

Keep recall sessions short and fun to build trust.
