lol thats what i was trying (and failing) to say


Rabbit Dummies

have a look here, they do the fur dummys and they also sell a scent so you can keep it attractive to the dog

Just remember the aim with recall is to make you more attractive than whatever she's up to!

If that means a rabbit fur smelly dummy then so be it!

I used a longline with billy too, i think the general rule is to keep them on the line for twice the amount of time it took you to train the command - so by then its really sunk in!

Another trick i was taught was to get a really cheap lead (poundland) cut it down to about 6-8in, and tie a knot in the end. When letting offlead attatch that stumpy lead which knocks against the dogs shoulder and fools them into thinking they are still on a lead...

hope it helps x
