Hi
I'm working through the "total recall" book at the moment and all has been going very well until the last few days when I've moved into the front garden (where she's not allowed unaccompanied so has a bit of novelty value). When I recall her she comes immediately, but dances away so I can't actually grasp her collar - she doesn't get the treat until my hand is on her collar. This it the problem I had with her recall before I started the programme. I never use her recall to make her do something she doesn't want to at the moment (i.e. bring her indoors or put her on the lead) so this is quite frustrating. The book has a few suggestions for this (e.g. putting her lead on before giving her food) and I'm doing this but it's not really helping (she's not that fussed about her meals). She's back to wearing a training line which I can grab so she doesn't get away with it. Any other ideas?
