Some dogs no matter how you try cannot be trained off the leash. There are a lot of dangers when you have your dog off leash and it is recommended to keep them on. I would also recommend checking with local leash laws since most places you are not supposed to have them off leash. If you are able to do it and still want to I would recommend getting a trainer to work with you and with Reilly. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
