yes! start with treats, i use pieces of my dog's food. show her the treat and say come! in a stern voice, but don't yell at her. if she doesn't get it make sure not to punish her, she doesn't really know it yet. unless she is just ignoring you. then use a treat still, show her the treat say come and as soon as she comes praise her. don't go crazy until she gets to you because what if she decides to turn around and go back, then she'll think she's doing the right thing. make a HUGE deal when she comes. go crazy praising her. after she gets good at it stop using the treat just say, come! then if you want to take it to another level you can teach her to sit when she comes. good luck!! |
