How do I teach my dog to come when called

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

**Start with Fun and Treats**: Grab some of your dog’s favorite treats and go to a quiet place. Call your dog’s name followed by “come!” in a happy tone. When they come to you, give them a treat and lots of praise. Repeat this a few times, and gradually increase the distance. Make it a game and keep it positive!

**Use a Long Leash**: If your dog is a bit stubborn, try using a long leash. Take them to an open area, let them wander a bit, and then call them while gently pulling on the leash. When they come to you, reward them. This helps them learn that coming to you is a good thing, even when they’re distracted.
