I have no great advice...but I can encourage you that it will pass. Grace and George are now 8 1/2 months old and have really gotten over a lot of this kind of behavior... most of the time. Grace even went through a phase where she would come to the door to be let in and when I would open it for her she would run away!
One caution: try not to call your dood after he/she has demonstrated that he's going to ignore you. The more you call and they ignore, I think it reinforces things. Go get them, or ignore them, or bribe them, but don't say "come" until you're pretty sure you can make it happen.
These doods will outgrow their willfullness. You can bet on it.
