Try a shrill whistle (I mean an actual whistle) for recall, but use it for nothing else. Start in an area with no other dogs or distractions, and from a short distance. If your dog’s never heard the whistle before, they will likely come straight over to investigate, then immediately reward with their favourite treat and praise. And repeat and repeat...
Just be careful if you then find yourself walking across a park with football matches going on.
