Take this for what its worth but I tone train much different and have done it really fast and successfully with a few dogs so far.
First I never shock them at all when i am tone training them. Second all of mine have already been trained to comeback when I vocally call them by name.
I just start out in the hills with them and turn them loose. When they get out about 30-50 yards I tone them then I vocally call them to me, when they get to me I give them a little treat and pet them up. Then I ignore them and let them start to range again and then when they get a ways out but where they can still see me and hear me I do the same thing. I repeat this 5 or 6 times. Next I only tone them to see what they do. If they come I give them a treat and pet them up again and then repeat a few more times, if they don't I go back to toning and vocally calling. Once they have done it a few more times successfully I take them home. Then I take them out the next day and try with only toning and see if they come, if they do I reward them by petting or treat or whatever I prefer at the moment. I do it a few more times to reinforce and they should be good to go. Maybe give them a couple of days off and go through same routine again. Won't take too long and they will fully be toned trained I bet.
I rambled long enough good luck with yours.
