Tussock , I am going to write a book for you to believe -it will say trained dogs screw up all the time as well and only in the land of hansell and gretal and the candy house do they all run like a swiss clock --at least then you wont be at odds with what most of us tht run hunting dogs have observed .
Most of us are part time trainers , we cannot and do not put many hours per day in as would a young police dog might get .With what we have we work with and I walk and whistle command my dog everyday -he is still willful and needs threats of chastisement to act fast to command -at times .I cooked my ex wife a big breakfast today and left the dog at the door looking at us eat..With a sausage left over I called him in and fed him and then "outya go " he understood perfectly and trotted almost out-went to sit on the carpet at the door until I casually took from my pocket his Ecollar trigger -didn't need to use it and he moved outside with haste.
All training is good and you may do it right but your dog still may want to do something else "sometimes"
