I have a ten year old Brittany spaniel housed in a good sized kennel outside. He gets regular exercise and walking BUT...if he is not controlled/put on his leash immediately upon exiting the kennel, he will run...and run and run...for blocks around the neighborhood. He will not listen to commands to come, wont be drawn by treats or the whistle I use. Going after him only pushes him farther and farther. If we wait him out, he'll eventually return on his own, but I'm afraid he'll find a bad result in traffic or cause other problems...plus it's just frustrating. Suggestions?
