dont hold the end of longline....step on it preferably with dog at high speed....she will turn around and think"how the heck did boss do that???" keep at it and dog will soon learn range you desire her to be within.... mine now pretty much keeps within 10-15 yards in good going and gets single quiet whistle if starts to get too far ahead sort of an "oih you" and she stops and looks back with silly grin then settles back into distance,it gets challenging when sign is hot and may just go back to using lead again for a time myself as bad habits creeping in due to not getting out enough.
