People think if I get my dog to recall away from something, I have to have something they like better. 🐕🍗

And there will come a time when what the dog is attracted to in the environment is far more reinforcing or attractive than any piece of food you could ever come up with. 🌳🐿️ So relying on lures to create a recall — that’s mistake number one. ❌

Mistake number two is the false confidence that’s created through tools. 🧰 The main tools I believe are at risk of creating a false sense of security or confidence in your recall are a long line or an electric collar. 🎮⚡

Batteries fail, maybe you don’t have your remote. 🔋As foolproof as it may seem, it’s still a tool — with a lot of potential fallout and emotional damage done to the dog. 💔🐾 But it’s just that: a tool.

You don’t want to rely on a tool. You want to rely on good dog training. 💪🐶🧠 #DogTrainingTips #RecallTraining #PositiveReinforcement #ConnectionOverControl #TrainWithKindness #DogTrainingTools
