I?ve got the ?Total Recall? book and it is great, so I?m about to start re-training Millie lurcher who has been allowed to turn into an absconder :(As I?ve said before on here, I?m SO cross with myself that I?ve let that happen - the first couple of times we let her off I was there, and she behaved in just the same way as all my other rescues. My OH walks the dogs after work while I ride the horse during the week - wind forward a few weeks of my OH walking her, and as soon as she is let off the lead she bolts flat out into the distance and ignores all commands. I am happy to take back walking the dogs and work with Millie to re-train her. My problem is my OH. He will want to walk them after work to save me time, but he doesn?t read much and I know he won?t read the book. He won?t listen to anything I tell him, and he hasn?t developed any awareness of when the dogs are about to do a runner, which is second nature to me. This is after 4 years, so he isn?t new to it all, he just doesn?t seem to have any dog awareness.At the moment Millie has to be walked on the lead which is rubbish for a young excitable lurcher - any suggestions how I can manage the problem? :(
