If she gets easily distracted, or isn't enthused with her treats, up the anti-try cheese, baby carrots, the treats that smell like bacon, etc. And in the beginning, treat EVERY time. That way she'll associate "COME" with TREATS! Once she gets it, move farther away, or randomly call her from another room-carry around a pocket full of treats so you can do this. Sooner or later, she'll catch on. It's difficult to train them sometimes when they're really young-they get distracted easily Best of luck!
this is what I was going to say!
