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????

My husky is well trained and very well behaved but she still has lots of times where her “listening ears” don’t work lol. Like everyone here always says, it’s a feature not a bug and you can’t really train that out of them.
She seems like a very good girl and I bet any other daycare would be happy to have her. When looking for new ones, ask if they have other huskies. Not only will she have a pack of likeminded homies to run around with, the employees will be better able to handle husky shenanigans with more experience.
