<<If anybody knows how to teach a dog to come from a distance when called, let me know. I can't tell if she's ignoring me or just can't hear me. I think it may be a combination of both.>>

A whistle with the pea out helps. Also starting with a pup helps. Richard Wolters had some good books on dog training.

I had a lab and a chessie that would handle out to 200 yards. They would sit on the whistle and wait for direction.
