Re: Bucket: did you ever get "a reliable recall?"
Recall is the last behavior I plan to work on, so no, not yet.
However, if it goes like the other two behavior changes, it should be a snap.
That dog literally has only had two, maybe three shocks total. Just putting the collar on puts her on task. At worst, I may have to play the "alarm" signal. Then again, maybe part of it is because she's a Springer. I swear she has an intelligence that is scary.
No dog owner should be without an ecollar.

I trained my first German Shorthair (intact male) to come back to the whistle everygoddamntime, from great distances and with dead prey in his mouth. It was probably the only behavior I got totally dialed in. I thought it ws easy until I got the bitch who has selective deafness.
