OK well I thought are sit / come's were coming along nicley until this morning!!!!![:@] I let Blaze out to relieve himself this morning. Well he did his thing and decided he wanted to chew on a stick that had fallen into the yard. Now its cold out and I want to go in. So I call him with a "come" and as soon as I said that he takes off bucking like a bull and running back and forth in the yard. Pretty much he was like I dont have to listen to you I want you to come chase me......

Now, I know I did something bad. I finally got him to come to me after about 5 minutes of him acting a fool in the back yard. I tapped his rear end, yelled (like that did any good), and tossed him in his kennel.

How do I punish a not "coming" after he has eventually come's to you? I feel like I punished his come and not his not listning. I cant really punish him when he is running away from me. No I did not chase him......... PLEASE HELP!!! I'm a little upset right now, because he was doing so well with sit/stay/come......
