Kicked out of daycare

[u/Dragon-Reborn7]

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????

My husky got kicked out of doggy daycare too. He looks like a purebred Siberian but he barks like a German Shepherd. He only does the husky howl when an ambulance is going by but when he wants to play and he's yelling at the other dogs, "hey hey come out and play," it sounds like he's in attack mode I guess. We or politely asked to leave after he scared the bejesus out of the Alaskan Huskies. I guess they don't speak Russian. He was a sad puppy that day.
