What TO do and what NOT to do if your dog runs away and doesn't listen

  • In this tutorial I talk about what to do if you were in a situation where your dog ran away from you and didn’t come back. Now obviously, the solution is to not get into that situation to begin with, by training your dog to reliably be with you off leash and to reliably come when called and not having your dog off leash or in unsafe areas. But I created this video because I often see people suddenly in a situation they have not planned for and do not now what to do, for example, yesterday when I was at the park and a woman was trying to catch her loose dog. What happened, as I explain in the video, is that when she caught her dog she did something that would make the dog less likely to come back to her if the dog were ever to be loose again.
    This video doesn't explain what to do to prevent your dog from running away, nor does it explain how to get your dog to listen to you no matter what. This tutorial is for those who find themselves in the situation where their dog is off leash and suddenly not listening to them.

      I have a 3 year Akita and she runs away when she's out the front door and ignores my commands. Treats or shock collar does not work! What should I do?

    • @kikopup
      @kikopup  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @@AD-eq4kn The thing about treats and shock collars ... they function the same way... you have to condition them first before using them for training.... If your dog is running after a rabbit and you try to give him a piece of kibble, or if you were to hurt him... he will most likely not notice because hes chasing the rabbit. You have to condition the food to be reinforcing to the dog and conversely someone who trains with a shock collar would do the same with the collar. The food and the pain dont "make" the behavior "happen". I would suggest to use positive reinforcement because that is how I train. Reinforcement mirrors punishment in how it is conditioned and how it functions. I choose to use reinforcement because it is fun for the dog and doesnt have the side effects that pain and startle cause. The key though, is breaking the training up into steps- where you are conditioning the dog to want to come back to you, with easy things first before getting to the hard things (when the dog is over aroused). I suggest playing recall proofing games inside your house and then in your yard, like in this video th-cam.com/video/iIR3MtTSyIw/w-d-xo.html Then when outside dont have the dog off leash until you have a 100% reliable recall.

      My puppy was fine walking off the lease between 4 and 6 months. Then his normal call of treat offers or clapping on my thighs, which worked fine previous months in our garden and out in the park just did not work. I had to ask a passer by dog owner to pick mine up whilst my puppy tried to jump at him. She likes to jump on people, in case they will give her treats. I just do not trust my puppy to respond to any trained recalls, so just allow her to run around using 50 ft lead. She comes back on recall, unless there is another dog around where she wishes to run to. When loose she was not interested in dogs, as she wheezed past all of them in very fast zoomies around them. I have learnt my lesson. Now she is almost 8 months and not thinking of giving any opportunity to not come back to me. It has been 2 frightening experiences for me. My husband never allowed her off the lease. He does not feel she responds to recalls. Until we are sure sge is good on recall, we will use 50ft lead, which gives her plenty of exercise. We also have 30ft tunnel, which she loves zooming around it in the house and also around our secure garden. Being a small breed she is only allowed 30 minutes a day walk. She loves doing more or gets bored easily. I have trained to do a lot of tricks. Thanks to Kikop, whose videos have been amazing!

    I recently had my dog escape the house. She is pretty new to me and has a very shaky recall, which is why she's never off lead. But she pushed the front door open for the first time and went on a joy run around the neighborhood. When I found where she was, it took everything in me to NOT let my fear show and cheerfully call her back. She, fortunately, came running. I made sure to reward her when she came back too. Though of course part of me was upset, the better management of that situation in my mind is making sure she can't get out again, not punishing her for coming back!

I've got video of him doing that. It's down a back lane, through a hedge! I can't say I "let" him go but he does come back!!! He doesn't stay long. He is very close to me and doesn't go where he can't see me except when he goes to visit that neighbor. If I turn my back & say, "Bye!!" He will run behind me!!

And the neighbors like to shoot if animals are in their yard . i was so scared and she wasn’t coming for 20 minutes. she could have gotten seriously hurt so when i finally caught her (i brought my other dog and pretended to play with her) she came but she didn’t come at first she ran around me in circles. i brought the other dog inside and my puppy followed i got so mad and i smacked her butt and i felt so bad bc i let the anger out when i shouldn’t of

He almost died. As soon as I squatted down and called him in a high pitch voice he came back. Thank God! We just adopted him and he’s such an amazing dog! I praised him and hugged him so tight. I was shaking from fear. He was just licking my face. Wanna make a grown man cry? Yeah he knew he scared me.

    Great video with good ideas. Most runaways are telling their owner, “Hey, I need more exercise!” Rescued my current dog, an Aussie who was seldom exercised because he was too strong for her to take him out. Naturally he’d bolt every chance he could. He’d just run around as fast as he could, hoping someone would chase him. Treats are great when they’ve settled down a bit, but a loud squeaky toy helps let the dog know the fun isn’t over, it’s just beginning and they’ll want to join you. If he gets his daily dose of run til he drops, much less likely to take off. We play ‘collar catch’ at the dog park with lots of treats multiple times each visit. I also have 30’, 60’, & 100’ long lines when we have to miss dog park time. A tired dog is a good dog. LOL

  • @Haferkoko

    Thanks for this video. I just had this situation today with my dog, who used to come when called anytime, her recall was pretty much 99% successful and we were working towards obedience off leash. But at some point she just started to run farther and farther away from me when off leash and breaking boundaries we had set (like not running into streets). I live in a tiny village so the streets are empty most of the time and cars are going slow, which is why I allow her to walk on the sidewalk with me off leash. Lately for some reason the recall doesn't work anymore in most cases and today, after looking back at me and not listening to all kinds of recalls which once worked, she actually ran into a street when she saw another dog on the other side! Luckily the car stopped when I ran in to pick her up. I figured I'll have to bring better treats with me again and reinforce long range recalls with better treats...

    Kikopup, your educating humans is just as beautiful as your dog training: everything is easy to follow and everything makes sense. I'm a great fan of dog training which is not based on physical or psychological intimidation. My dog (a rescued dog) used to be quite a problem dog (fearful of people, with a tendency towards using aggressive strategies when in danger, with quite limited social skills as far as other dogs are concerned). I went with him through a whole course of traditional training (with a prong collar and a choke collar) and of course none of his problems were solved that way. Then I came across wonderful people involved in positive training, and especially training based on good two-way communication and on the recognition of the importance of emotions. And this was how my whole dog adventure really began: I started learning a lot, my dog started to make progress in many respects... Today he is still problematic in certain respects, but at the same time he is a great dog - I'm really impressed by how successful he has managed to be. And, in fact, our life now is quite smooth - I only need to take into consideration his limitations. As a fan of positive dog training methods and a believer in education I even happened to translate some of your dog training texts into Polish (I am from Poland) - they have been posted on the website of my friend dog trainer, of course with due authorship acknowledgements and a link to the original website. I just wanted to let you know that you're doing a great job how to work and be with a dog - I really appreciate and admire your work!!!

    My boyfriend & I have had our adopted dog for a couple years now. He had a history of running away long before us. His adoption records showed that he was returned to the shelter 3 times before we adopted him. We were told it was because he kept escaping and running away from previous owners. He gets out by using his paw to pry the door open further when someone is leaving. He is a pretty big/strong dog so this is easy for him to do. When he gets loose, he doesn’t respond to calling, running away from him, treats, toys, or anything (we have yet to try laying on the ground).
    Today he got loose and almost ran towards a busy road. Luckily, he turned around, but there would’ve been no way for us to stop him if he hadn’t. ☹️ His behavior is very disheartening because we love him like he’s our child. A group of neighborhood boys caught him for us today, that was after an hour of us trying. We are always nice to him when he comes back, he gets plenty of exercise and affection, has lots of toys, and he is neutered, but he is still a very energetic dog & still tries to escape regularly. I could really use suggestions! I am worried about something bad happening to him.

      Melody Beall I have a 13yr old beagle who is the same.. The more we call him to come to us, the more he runs.. I offer his favourite treats but he ignores, I never let him off lead at the off leach beach , after I tried it last year thinking now he’ll be ok, bad decision , other walkers caught him for me at car park, I do not punish him at all, but he loves to escape at every opportunity. I had tradesmen at home recently and they left one of the gates slightly open, It’s very frustrating as he is fantastic except for this.

    • @olbuddyolpal120
      @olbuddyolpal120 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Jac Woolley Some breeds have natural wanderlust potential as a breed trait. The beagle is one of them which makes sense if you think about it.. They were made to hunt and track off leash. Nothing you can do about it but manage it, unfortunately, but you should know you aren’t doing anything wrong otherwise..

    • @olbuddyolpal120
      @olbuddyolpal120 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Melody Beall What breed is he? See my reply to Jac above and take a look at the dogtime website’s wanderlust potential list. Maybe it will be a little comforting to know it’s a common trait for many breeds (even if they are a mix) and you certainly aren’t alone!
      To both of you: Because your dogs know they can get out, run, and avoid listening, you need to be proactive as much as reactive. How are their obedience skills? You can play impulse control games to build up inhibition which can then be used in general. But you can’t just do this in the home or they will not listen in the highly distracting and exciting outside world. Practice everywhere. Form a solid recall. Try invisible fencing if you must, install a better or double doors if you must. I think anything is worth it to avoid the dangers they could face.

    • @animalobsessed1
      @animalobsessed1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Don't wait for him to run. Keep a leash next to the door and always leash him before opening it. Additionally, it would be pretty helpful if you taught him an alternative behavior, such as going to his crate before you open the door, or just a down stay (though proofing that is actually more difficult in my opinion, than just sending the dog to the crate).

      So true, we humans get so upset when we are going to lose something and think that screaming and acting up will somehow get the message of our concern into their head, I see the same behavior with kids and their parents when the kids do something undesirable. It is hard, I have a very active dog and she can be very hyper, pushy, and not listen but over a long time we have taught her a lot, they have to work through so much to understand us and our world but we must realize they do want to have our world and be with us. I love Emily's info it really teaches a lot. I noticed when I am tired or not well is when I say and do things that confuse my dogs and kids, so that time I try to not react and try to breath and think first really hard, most times it works but sometimes we humans just lose it and make no sense. Just take a time out, breath, pray and start again, I always try to remember to forgive myself and others to move forward. My dog is a service dog so we have train her to be bomb proof and that is tough because some things she has to respond to, like the word NO. She has to realize she will have to be around others not just me and even though I use the positive approach because I see and know that works, I also teach no-no or uh-uh, or tsk-tsk sounds, so she alerts and tries to see what goes on. She is almost always with me but if she is with others she has to know that others may behave in the less desirable way and how she can work through it. She is a shepherd/collie cross so she is bred to react and push and steer, so I have to take that drive and teach her where to put it, so you can imagine she and I can bump heads a lot quite literally and so I learned to train in lots of small amounts and wow it does pay off. It is hard but so worth it, everyone stays safe then, and that is the goal, just a peaceful and as positive as we can get. I know losing my pup would be heartbreaking. Why have a shy fearful little dog now and she can be a challenge but we have all tried to not get aroused by her antics as it is out of fear and training her has taught her where home is and how we love her. Keep sharing Emikly we love this channel.

And I always tell him not to sound upset or mad when he's trying to get them and to also not punish them when they do come to him because doing that is basically teaching them the opposite of what you're trying to and that is if you come to me you're going to get in trouble? I mean it doesn't make any sense but I see people do this all the time. And yet they wonder why their dogs don't come to them when called. Great video

    • @kikopup
      @kikopup  4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Everyone has their triggers that make them annoyed. When dogs run away its scary and stressful. Actually I didn't mention this in this video, but I train my dogs also when I run at them full speed it means nothing. You can train this while working on a stay, you run away and then run strait at them and then give a treat. Because sometimes when dogs have never seen you run fast at them before and they are loose they can get weirded out. Another thing I do is when I get annoyed at stuff I just go and toss treats to my dogs. I get frustrated with my computer sometimes especially when it crashes and deletes my work, and when I do that I go and feed all my dogs a treat so now when I get annoyed they all look expectant of a treat.

He is very stubborn and won’t listen to us if we try to call him or call him with a treat. 😔 it always stresses me out and I always end up crying because my dog ran out.

I knew that chasing her wouldn't be right; she would think it's play time. I used the high pitched voice and knelt down and she came close but not close enough. I started to walk away from her, talking to her as I did. Luckily, she followed me home, 2 blocks. She always stayed about 10' from me, which was nerve wracking.

    We had a big fright today.. We just got a puppy. It's now 4 months old blue heeler cross kelpie. We have a long driveway about 400 metres long and he bolted towards the freeway. No amount of shouting would stop him. 2 cars braked and missed him and we finally got him. And all I could do was praise him whyen he came to me. All of the other times wherever he is, he would come to me when I whistle . Now I have to lock him in the back yard. And build a better fence across the front of the property.

    i found my dog when he was a year old at my work cause his previous owner let him roam around. i asked her if i could adopt him and now i’ve had him for a year so he’s 2 now but still likes to try and get out. i’m assuming it because it’s what he was used to but how do i train him to stop, like if he gets the chance to get out the door he takes it and he won’t listen when called. i live in the country do when he takes off he’s not catchable. he comes back by the end of the night but there’s been once or twice he was gone for a few days and i had to go find him. he listens very well in the house and on a leash but like i said if he gets the chance he takes it.. i don’t have a fence and he’s on a run leash for a little bit of the day but idk what else to do to change it

    Do you have any advice on a dog who has a pretty high preydrive?
    My dog rarely runs away, BUT it has happened some times and it has always been whenever she's off leash, and she spots a wild animal. She usually listens to me very very well, have great contact, but a wild animal triggers her like crazy and the issue is, that she gets completely deaf, lol. Even if I call for her, happy voice, she's just chasing the animal which is very scary, since she could run to a road or whatever, which is my biggest fear!! She will come running back to me, very happy and ready to get on leash, but at that moment I'm so freaking scared and upset because WHAT IF I LOST HER. So I actually very rarely have her off leash anymore, so it hasn't happened in about a year. I just don't know if this is something that can be trained or if I have to have her on leash forever.
    It only happens with wild animals. And as I said, she just gets deaf. Doesn't hear ANYTHING, she just chasing. And she's soooo fast.
    Any advice?

      Michelle Shannie that’s exactly what my dog does! As soon as he sees a rabbit or squirrel, he’s locked on and won’t pay attention to anything else. but every time after he loses the animal, he comes back. Something else that’s a good idea is a light up collar. I have one that you can make blink a green light, so when he runs we can always see the light since he blends in well. This also works in daylight! :)

    My old dog used to run away when I was younger he was just an explorer though, since then I've got 3 and when they'd run out I'd just get down on the floor works really well done it a couple times as well to get my neighbors dogs for them

    There are no bad dogs just bad dog owners. Thank you for sharing this video My little wolf broke out of his leash and started to charge for a busy street. I got down and acted with wide arms and thank God I grabbed him and just was so thankful that I got him. Or I would act like I was hurt and fall on the ground, he would come running then or treats...or I would say "Ok, well I am leaving with out you..: and walk the other way and then he's like "Wait Ma'ma where you going with out me" and follow me. But when I wanted him to come inside from playing the backyard, he always, always had me. He would never listen unless I brought food. Lol..

      Yes. So important to proof the recall with distractions th-cam.com/video/iIR3MtTSyIw/w-d-xo.html If it makes you feel better, some people struggle with hunting and herding breeds... hunting breeds taking off after prey, and herding breeds taking off after cars to herd lol. Safest thing is to have the dog on a harness and dragging long line. And the perk of having a little dog is that if they did take off on the long line and you had the end of it , you wont be swept off your feet and break your hip. There are lots of little dog perks :)

      @@kikopup I have dogs that are mixed with hunting and heading breeds and live in the sticks. I sometimes take them off leash and they go far. I sometimes get frustrated because they will not return but they always do with me whistling. I might buy a whistle. Any tips I do want to have them run the land and even hunt the surrounding area. But I want them to come on the first whistle. Thank you. Some one recommend me your channel, very good work.

    What do you use for training treats? I am hesitant to use certain ones because I want to avoid weight gain while training, as well as GI upset. Thanks, great videos!!

    We had 3 dogs. 2 we got a month or so ago. The the oldest one we had, Princesita, was a free spirit and ran out the door 70% of the time the doors was left open. She just loved to run around and sniff. I would always be terrified she would get hit by a car....sometimes I would yell at her because I was scared for her.
    Well about 6 weeks ago she ran out the door for her usual free experience and I'm always mad when she does that because she could get hurt. Well this time for some reason she went too far and was on the road as a car came...
    She died instantly thank God so she felt no pain. I do remember holding her little body in my arms and seeying those little eyes which would never look at me again and sobbing and sobbing. My mom loved her, it was the first dog she truly ever loved and my dog had looked at my mom the split second before she got hit. Yes my mom was bawling pretty hard. We buried her that day on the property we had just moved into a week or 2 earlier.
    A Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix. She was about 3 years old.
    Rest in Peace my little baby I hope I'll see you in heaven one day. ♥️💔
    Now I bought a course for the 2 remainder dogs (as now they are still puppies) and I won't make the same mistakes I made with Princesita. I hope to train them so that they never die a sudden death, I wish them to die a natural death from old age instead.
    God Bless y'all and the puppies and doggies which make our lives so much more complete. ♥️🐕

      Oh my god😢... Today my dog 5 months old she started chasing an old man, i told him to stop walking so I could catch her but all he did was to keep walking and laughing. We were starting getting close to the road, the man wouldn't stop walking and my dog was already on the road barking and chasing the man, she almost got hit by a car I cried so much into thinking I could've lost her. I was lucky bc there was a house close to the road which had a dog outside, my dog is pretty sociable so she ran onto the dog. If it wasn't that dog i don't know if I would ever catch her or if she would survive. This was my lesson to teach her before letting her be free.
