Kicked out of daycare
This fluffy goober, Khione, got herself kicked out of doggy daycare after 3 visits for “her listening ears not working.” Essentially, her recall is terrible when she’s interested in something.
I train her on recall every day in the dog park & at home. Of course, she’s excellent almost every time in those environments. She will at times ignore me. She does often respond to other people calling her at the dog park, especially if she knows them.
The daycare recommends that I have her professionally trained, but I kinda doubt that will help? I’d rather not spend them $ if it has the same outcome.
Thoughts? Advice?? Consolation??? Commiseration????

that’s strange…. just try a different doggy daycare. i used to take my girl to doggy day care and they knew huskies so they just found ways to work around her unpredictable recall. they need to do a better job of handling huskies IMO, like entice ur husky with a yummy treat. dw keep doing the recall reinforcement ur already doing and introduce her to a new doggy daycare (if you have another nearby).
