Lesson 1: Intro & The Concepts
Welcome to Rapid Recall - here is a breakdown of the MUST-HAVE skills for your dog to stop ignoring you and instead ignore the distractions. These 3 core skills will have your dog saying “that’s none of my business, I’m going to have a cool experience with my human!”

Lesson 2: Power of Choice
To train a dog to listen, we have to communicate to them when they get it right, set them up to learn what the best choice is, and THAT’s when we can live a life moving through the world together.
-
Lesson 3: Rewards & Motivation
“What are the best treats to use?”
“Do I HAVE to use treats?”
“What if my dog isn’t food motivated?”
This video dives into rewards, types of rewards, and growing your dog’s motivation to learn.

Transformational Games
-
Orientation Game
The foundation game to all the games! Great for using your marker, creating choice, and learning timing of choice > marker > reward so you and your dog start building clear communication so you both get exactly what you want from eachother.
-
Middle
Middle is all about providing a safe and rewarding place for your dog to come in to when there is distraction. It’s ultimate in Proximity and is great to use as an emergency recall.
-
Disengagement Pattern
Disengagement Pattern is all about showing your dog there is more value when they come away from distraction and engage with you!
-
Scatter Switch
Scatter Switch is valuable for teaching your dog Proximity, Disengagement, and training your recall cues.
-
Two Paws On
Two Paws On is an excellent Proximity game. It’s another variation on giving your dog a safe spot to anchor in the face of distraction. It’s my personal go-to for getting my dog back on leash because he finds it so rewarding.
-
Check Me Out Circle
Train your dog to have eyes in the back of their head, like a built in GPS they’ll always tune into exactly where you are. This is the game that shapes their brain to come running when you change direction without ever having to call them.
-
Pizzaz
Spice up your dog’s life with a little pizzaz, a level up on the Check Me Out Circle.
-
Rewind
Keep growing your dog’s internal GPS. Rewind will have your dog shadowing you whether they’re by your side or 10 feet away. Brilliant for growing your dog’s drive to get back to you, even in moments where the leash has to go back on.
-
Collar Grab
Imagine having a hand reach toward your face? Not the most comfortable experience, is it? And yet we so often do this to our dogs, which explains why many are not keen to get back on leash. Try this approach for a smoother transition. You’ll have your dog offering up their clasp on a silver platter.
-
Funder, Tornado, Typhoon
The Weather Games! Giving you 3 variations of “come to me and through me, and I’ll send you out again!”
Variety is the spice of life, we always want to keep ourselves as unpredictable as the environment, and the weather games is a great way to offer spontaneity to your dog!
