I would like to take our dog off the chain and let him play around in our yard...but he just bolts off running. and the faster I go he speeds up!! How do i train him to come when I call him or at least keep him in our yard?
thanks!
Dog Training Hand Signal - Train Your Dog To Sit With Only Showing Your Hand
Recommended Answer:
No dog is born with good manners. Pooping on the carpet, leaping enthusiastically onto guests, pulling so hard he practically yanks your arm out of the socket when on walks--that's all perfectly acceptable in the canine world. It's up to you to teach your dog to behave the way we humans want him to. Not training your dog and expecting him to be pleasant to live with is like never sending your child to school and expecting him to ace the SATs.

Common Tools Used In Dog Training Schools
- give him a name hes used 2 like randomly say a name 5 times if he ignores a name then say another 1 keep doing it till his ears perks up wen u say a name
- dont chase him! use a really long retractable leash and 'let him go' but just lenghthen the leash length. then when he starts running turn your back and ignore him. when you chase him he thinks youre playing with him. good luckk! :D
- You have to start training him to come when he's on a leash! Once he can do that, then get him to come in a large room in your house off the leash, then, in a fenced-in yard off the leash. it has to be done in small baby steps and it will take a while.
Of course, you should never have your animal running loose; cars will hit it, it could eat something, someone could shoot it, and your state probably has a leash law.
If you want the dog to stay in your yard, build a LONG dog run (do NOT just chain the dog) or build a fence. If you've got any questions, mail me! My emails on my profile page.
Good luck! - i don't know if your dog has had any obedience training but form your answer it sounds rather like a no (sorry if i'm wrong). So i assume he has not - you need to spend a lot of time teaching him who is the leader and training him to perform basic obedience commands.
To have a dog come to you - if you chase or move towards your dog, he will never come to you and he will see it as a game that you are tring to catch him. Have a yummy treat in your hand (like cooked chicken pieces) and let him know what you have. Once he is coming towards you to get his treat, say Come! and when he reaches you without running away, reward him. You can do this on a leash first, but dont use the command many times in a row as your dog will learn that he doesnt have to obey you the first time you say it.
Another tip is to tie ur dog on the leash, tie your leash to your waist and don't say anything to the dog, just walk anywhere like you normally would, and when the dog starts pulling the other direction, walk the opposite way so he has to learn to follow you. Do this for about 2 weeks as many times per day as you can, the longer the better, and after some time your dog will learn to follow you without the leash too.
EDIT - are you taking your dog on daily long walks? or is he just in the garden the whole time? dogs need exercise, some more than others and when they have too much energy, you can't train them as they will not listen, so make sure you drain off some of his energy by a longer walk or a game and you can train him after he has calmed down. - first do not chase after them. they will only think your playing with them bad experience with my uncles dog who got lose took 30 minutes to get him back inside the house.
What i do is i show my puppy her favorite treat and say "come".
-she comes and gets her treats do this until she learns what 'comes' means
-try praising her or giving her treats mix it up.
do not say 'come' and when she does 'comes' punish her otherwise she will not come to you.
its better if they think 'come' means happy not getting punish.
and if they do not come don't keep repeating 'come' because they will eventually think come means ignore you!!! and start to ignore you. - You can take him to a petsmart and they will take great care of him ... my dog is very obidient but can still horse around when its time.. she loves going back cuz the ppl are nice and rub her and evrything.... its the treats tht the dogs love and they have thousands.. plus if they finish early they excersize them
