Hi Everyone
I wrote before and didn't get back in time to tell everyone that I really appreciated and enjoyed the stories and advice you all gave me about leaving my dog Jake alone..This board is truly friendly..
One quickie question that I would like to ask some advice on and nothing seems to be working is that Jake (now just turned three) likes to play this game when we let him off the leash. When we are ready to leave..hes not..we try to get him to come and he gets a foot away from us and then bolts..hes obviously playing a game..but a game that has caused several lost hours trying to catch him..We tried taunting/bribing him with chicken even! No food seems to work, we ignore him that doesnt work..Doesnt seem to be a solution..Every time we have caught him, it was by luck that I nabbed his coller..! Any suggestions that will actually work!?
Thanks much!
Steph
