The command to come is probably the most important obedience command you can ever teach your puppy.
Not only for his or her safety but this can give you a feeling of trust in your puppy and gives your puppy more freedom to run.
When you and your puppy are out at the park or beech you can let your puppy go out exploring on his or her own.
With the teaching of the come command your puppy will be alert and ready to respond to your command to come.
When the puppy has been trained correctly to the command to come he or she will give a immediate response upon hearing your command, every time, regardless of what else is going on around them.
Do not kid ourselves, To get a great response to the command to come is not always easy to achieve.
There is a lot of puppy training techniques that will help with the command to come but it doe's take a lot of work, and the truth is that it is very difficult for some puppies to get it 100% right.
Training puppies is easier with very young puppies.
Young puppies love to follow you around and often just run up to you.
At this early stag all you have to do is say the words come or come here as they run up to you.
Make sure you praise your puppy when they get to you.
Start inside the house with no distractions around.
Kneel down and say come or come here and when your puppy gets to you, praise and reward them for their efforts.
Repeat this exercise many times in the day and all through the week.
