Sighthounds are sight-driven hunters built for explosive speed. The moment prey drive activates, voice commands are ignored - not out of disobedience, but because of how these dogs are hardwired. Generic recall methods assume a food-motivated, handler-focused dog. Your sighthound is none of those things when something is moving.
This course is built around the sighthound's actual physiology and instincts. The e-collar is used as a communication tool in a structured, humane programme - not as a punishment device.
Each stage must be solid before the next begins. Skipping ahead does not speed things up - it undoes what has already been built.
Why generic recall fails. The physiology behind prey drive. How to read body language and pre-chase signals before lock-on occurs.
No commands, no treats, no pressure. Building genuine trust at home first - the foundation everything else depends on.
How to fit, programme and find the correct working level for your individual dog. The collar is worn with no stimulation until your dog is completely relaxed in it.
Tone conditioning at home, short sessions, high success rate. The recall command is introduced only once the tone response is solid.
Outdoor recall in controlled conditions, progressing through distraction levels to prey drive situations. Pavlovian training, the red boost button, and how to reward a prey drive recall correctly.
Selective recall, extreme prey drive, rescue and anxious dogs. A clear reset protocol for when things slip.
Safe off-lead locations, introducing your dog to others, and the four fundamental commands that complete a reliable, safe dog.
Reviews of Don’s in-person training and boarding, from Trustpilot.
“Her recall is so much better to the point that she can be off lead when we go for walks.”
“He was very knowledgeable and experienced and now we can let our previously very stubborn sight hound off lead anywhere!”
“I first saw the sighthound guy on instagram... The advice he has given us means we now feel very confident when we let our pup off the lead.”
Some owners want the method in their own hands. Others just want the recall fixed. Both are fine.
On Recall Residential your hound comes and lives with me. I condition the recall myself, on my own e-collar, in a real daily routine.
£850 for seven nights of e-collar conditioning, or £1,700 for the full twenty-one night package.
I only take one recall dog at a time, so there is usually a wait.
