 hi lora, how long have you had your dog.
 it takes time,

 my school had me do leash recall,
 in my days in tranning class.
 my dog does good with it.

I have tried treats and I've tried corrections. The treats that I have tried include cheese, snausages, kibble, chicken, and nothing works. My dog acts great with other dogs and my dog watches whoever has the toy except me but when I try to do training with out dogs it is as if I am not there. My dog keeps showing me time and time again that he can't handle freedom. He will not play on Flexi lead. I know he needs to play but it is hard to let him play when I can't trust him. Any suggestions?
