When you say tie out, is she tied on shore, or is she in the water on a long line?

I've not had a dog to train in the water, but I wonder if a lengthy cord clipped to her collar would allow you to keep her from getting out of range? Floating polypropylene line would probably not tangle in her paws. Perhaps this is what you're already doing?
