I have done this but just lately my dog has taken to running away in the woods further than I would like she was really good at staying near me and my other dog but not so good now took both to beach at low tide and she recalled ok I wonder if she is getting lost in the woods as I have not had her long and walk different areas some days I will keep her on lead in the woods for a while

I’m just starting this.
Do I need to hold the collar, or can I just give him the treat when he comes to me?

I'm doing the training with my new boy. I don't hold the collar - he tends to run back to me and sit for the treat.  :luv: If I want to put his lead on him though, I do get hold of the collar first. Just do what works best for you  ;)
