How can I teach my dog to come when called

Sure! Here are eight different ways you can teach your dog to come when called:

[TrentonMagana]

**Start with Treats**: Use some of your dog's favorite treats. Call them in a happy voice and reward them when they come to you. Repeat this a few times until they get the hang of it!

**Use a Long Leash**: Take your dog to a safe, open area and attach a long leash. Call them to come while gently pulling the leash. When they come, give them a treat and lots of praise!

**Practice in Short Bursts**: Keep your training sessions short and fun. Call your dog for a few minutes, then let them play. This keeps it exciting for them!

**Make it a Game**: Turn it into a game of hide and seek. Hide somewhere in your house or yard and call your dog. When they find you, celebrate with treats and pets!

**Use a Clicker**: If you’re into clicker training, click when your dog comes to you and then give them a treat. This helps them associate the sound with a reward.

**Stay Consistent**: Always use the same command, like “come” or “here.” Consistency helps your dog understand what you want from them.

**Practice with Distractions**: Once they’re good at coming when called in a quiet area, try it in places with more distractions, like the park. Start with low distractions and gradually increase.
