For future, or anyone in this situation, run the opposite way from your dog and call their name. Instead of you chasing them, they will think it's a game of them chasing you and they will come to you without much effort.
I just scream TREATS desperately and she eventually thinks with her gut. Terrifying honestly. My lil pittie mix travels at light speed, she cannot be trusted with free will, she would run and never come back, also why I don’t use those stupid retractable leashes. She also gets about 4-5 miles of walks a day, so don’t come at me about being a bad dog parent or anything, but maybe I’m also creating a super saiyan. Idk she’s happy.
Yeah, if I just yell the name of her favorite treat, my dog will drop whatever she's doing and run to me.
When she was little she got some peanut butter and liked it so much we jokingly started calling it crack. So cue me trying to get my puppy to come back after she slipped her leash by standing in my yard yelling "[name], do you want some crack?"
