If I want the dogs to come in from the garden and they are not keen to come in, having too much fun. I don't want to use recall whistle or call them - because it will be seen as a 'negative' stopping their play and may slowly put them off recalling. So, I go into the far corner of the kitchen, look in a corner and - in a squeaky happy voice - pretend to be talking to the cutest little kitten I ever saw. I can do it very quietly, but it brings them both RUSHING in every single time! ;D ;D ;D
Re: Try this - it works! Brilliant! Opening the fridge door and taking out the cheese dish also seems to work ...! ;D

I know we shouldn't tease her, but it's just a bit of fun". ;D ;D ;D

I'm sure he's thinking what is that daft bat going on about.
