poxon 5,555 Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Dogs are terrible for copying one another especially bad habits an what there doing is far more interesting than what your doing so they don’t see no point in recall back to you when called plus if it pissed you off there not coming back to you they feed of that energy.....you need to use the gay Batman voice no mater how much of a clown you feel useing it or get the treats on the goFailing that give one of them leads that everyone hates a crack one of them expendable ones then a treat as a reward something like chicken or lamb or tin hot dog sausage give it a crack you have nothing to loose Quote Link to post

blackmaggie 3,375 Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I have only had 2 beddy xs both had good recall one could head strong at times when she was younger if I was you buddy I would take one out at a time and see if you can find a enclosed car park or something similar a unit maybe smaller the better were there will be no other dogs and next to no scent to distract it and just work on your recall just don't over do it make yourself fun to be with give treats if you want make a fuss even take a ball and bounce it to get there attention you have more chance being centre of attention on a place like that a park full of dogs running round and scent everywhere 1 Quote Link to post

I would believe that one is f***ing off and one is following, forget about any training at home it’s a totally different mindset , it’s the energised mind set of the lead dog you need to work with, you don’t say how long those two have been together or what vintage ? 2 Quote Link to post
