Re: Oh! Dear! Back to basics
In this situation with this dog, recalling has been negatively punished. If the dog finds collar grabs aversive than it is likely positively punished.
My dog targets me with his neck when I ask for his collar or show him a leash 
Consequences are individual and are based on experience.
