Re: How to train "Here!" correctly?
Okay progress report!
Been to the park twice now, yesterday and today, armed with cheese. She's been brilliant. Today she came back 100% of the time when I said "Here" the first time.
I've also been extra careful. Letting her off in the middle of the grass, so there aren't trees, daffodils, dog poo, all the kind of fun things to distract her. I've made a massive fuss and given her some cheese every time. Looks like it's working.
I think I may have made the overconfident mistake, where she was great to begin with on the grass, so I thought she was brilliant at recall, then went too fast, expecting her to come when she was in wooded areas, around dogs, other humans etc. I'm kinda back to basics, but was very happy with her today, every time I said "here" she ran to me soooo fast and so excited. Good news
I'll try and get her to recall when there's more distractions over the coming week, and let you know how it's going.
