[quote=Anonymous]It all depends on my tone of voice -- just like with my kids. Eighty percent of the time he'll come trotting over at the sound of his name, but if he's smelling an interesting tree or chasing a squirrel, I need to drop my voice three octaves and bark out his name with a guttural grunt to get him to listen. 99.9% of the time that works, even mid-run to meet another dog. Early on, we did a lot of training and he was really responsive. I've become more lax in the eight years since, and he knows it. He's obedient enough though, so for the time being I'm focusing my energies on getting my three year old to listen instead...[/quote]
