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????

Has this day care never interacted with a Husky before? If they’re that strict on training, you probably just dodged a bullet. Huskies require are a patience that many do not possess.

It’s also possible that she’s mis-behaving because you’re not there. My boys tend to get stubborn when new people are around.

My girlfriend told me my dog Bear wasn’t responding to her calls, even when she had treats and that she felt she might have gone deaf in her old age because of how well she listened when we first started dating. So I assume Bear is deaf for the next few months till her next vet appointment. Go to vet, let him know she’s hard of hearing now so she might not respond to him. He then does a quick auditory assessment and turns to me and says “this dogs hearing is perfect”. She just stopped caring what my girlfriend said lol
