Before the walk even starts, the training begins.
In this session, Kat the Dog Lady is showing a client and their dog Roscoe how to practice a simple but powerful recall tune up drill before heading out on a walk.
When dogs are surrounded by exciting sights, smells, and distractions at the park, staying connected to their owner can be challenging. Taking a few minutes to work on engagement and recall before the walk helps set the tone for success, builds focus, and reminds your dog that paying attention to you is rewarding.
A strong recall isn't just about coming when called—it's about creating a relationship where your dog chooses to stay connected, even when the environment is competing for their attention.
Consistency, patience, and making it fun are the keys to success! 🐶✨
