Teaching The "leave" Command

[Christina77]

Are you secretly the 'other' mum of O-ren?? cos your bitch sounds like O-ren, only nowadays she is SOOO focused on the ball or stick she wont let ANYTHING take her eyes off it, including moving out of the way of my hands if i reach out to her GRRRRRR she simply dodges and sits aside ready for me to throw.. prob make a good flyball gal, she is OBSESSIVE..

i know wot u mean about the OHs secret control... O-ren will do as he wishes STRAIGHT away he doesnt even have to add tone or authortity... its my fault... i give her all the affection and stuff so she knows how to play 'cute' with me and disobey ;)

;) Bella is totally focussed on the stick , her eyes won't leave it and she walks beside me until I throw it.

I also find that just saying "do you want a stick ?" has her glued to my side , she watches my every move to see when I'm going to get that stick for her

I've used "do you want a stick ?" for an emergency recall when I had to think fast and get her to come to me even faster , worked a charm

yeah I'm just the person that bathes her , trains her , plays with her , feeds her 50% , yet DH who hasn't spend 1 minute training her gets total obedience
