For me I usually try to intiate the training session when Maddie is otherwise preoccupied, not hard with a puppy. If she's right near me I'll try to get her interested in a toy across the room.

Once she's a way from me I crouch and say "Maddie, Come!" just about as excited as I can sound. I'm also trying to incorporate a hand signal so I do that at the same time. Most of the time she comes bolting at me full speed (exactly what she's supposed to do) so I praise her and give her the treat.
