Here's a fun one, and a good training exercise: Go for a walk with a friend, have the friend hold onto your dog while you tell her to 'stay.' Start by staying within eyesight and then calling her with an animated "come!" as your accomplice lets go. Reward her with a hug and a treat.

Then you can go farther, hide behind trees, wait longer. But always the animated "come" or "Trixie, come, come, come" followed by the treat. Eventually, you'll be able to do it without the accomplice.

The idea is making running to you the most fun thing Trixie does in life. That way, when you call her for another reason, she's going to LOVE running to you.
