Homer is a two year old neutered male Siberian Husky. He is a very well mannered dog within the home and with the family. Homer's only major issue is that he bolts out the door when guests arrive, won't come when he is called and sometimes runs off for days at a time. Homer has been picked up by several different dog officers from as far as six towns away from where he lives!!!!! Homer is an interesting case his owners give him plenty of exercise, he is well obedience trained on lead and he gets along very well with other animals. This makes his behavior more unusual since his family have done such an excellent job with him otherwise. Homer will need several levels of learning to come when he is called. Then he will be able to be allowed the freedom of being outside with his owner while being off the leash, but under their control. His first level of training will involve using a twenty foot lead and learning what "Come" actually means. We will be using pieces of beef as rewards every time he successful goes directly to his owners when called and guided using the leash when he is unsuccessful. Homer loves food and praise and even during his first session it was easy to see that although his unwanted behavior is very rehearsed, that he was having a lot of fun learning this new behavior. Homer's owners are looking forward to being able to help Bruin master his weak area. After several weeks of practice Homer will come back indoors when called and can accompany his family on hikes and long walks in safe environments.
