It’s a common problem seen among all dog owners. Your dog listens well when you say “sit”, “down” and “stay”, but he rarely comes when called, especially if he’s not on a leash. Why is “come” so hard to train? How come he understands the rest but not this?
Teaching your dog to come to you every time is a skill to train like any other. The best way to do this is to start up close. Three times a day, for about two weeks, stand one metre away from your dog and say “Princess, come.” Use a cheerful voice and give her a treat when she gets to you. Make sure you’re close enough that she’s guaranteed to be successful every time. Gradually add distance and distractions. Your call should always mean treats, fun and attention.
