Train Your Dog To Come When Called By Making It Fun For Them - Professional Dog Training Tips

- The fastest way to train your dog to come when called is by making it fun for them! Sometimes we talk to people about the reasons that their dog may not be responding to their come command. There could be many factors that cause the dog to not be too interested in responding immediately to what could potentially be a life-saving command! Reasons like "he always comes when I show him treats" or maybe people use their come command too often in situations where the dog doesn't really have to respond to that word. The best way to make sure that your come command works reliably is to practice it. And be sure to not just practice it in your house, or in situations where the dog doesn't have any other choice to make. Having your dog distracted like they most likely would be in a real emergency scenario is a great way for your dog to learn that responding to the come command is the BEST thing that they can do! We will talk about some ways that will help you to teach your dog how to respond to the come command the first time, every time!

I taught my dog to come and then sit in front of me and give him treats as a reward but he hasn’t been having fun with that which is how I found this video! I’m hoping he can still be calm and controlled when I need him to be
Your videos aren’t just super helpful, they are so much fun to watch! Thanks for making them.
Thank you, R Parker! So glad you enjoy watching them, and that they have been helpful! ~Ken
I agree!!
You guys are warm hearted, great to watch and so informative about how to love our dogs even more, thank you! :) My border collie thanks you too ha ha :)
Aww, thanks Lainie! Spending quality time with them is so important. I’m glad you can practice some of these things with your Border Collie. They certainly love a challenge😉 We have all sorts of other training on our channel you will enjoy as well! Thanks for watching, Happy Training! ~Ken
I so enjoy your videos. Obvious that you love your dogs and love what you do. Cheers and thanks. You’re helping me a lot with my Field Spaniel.
Thanks for making so super videos!
Awww.... and the little one in that pack!! 💕 I wish for all dogs to be as healthy, happy and fulfilled as they are with you guys! New to your channel and I'm so excited to check out your videos I could go running around with a tennis ball in my mouth! 😆😆
You guys are awesome! I binge watch your videos. I appreciate all you do to help us!
I appreciate you guys so much. I just took over the care of my brothers one and a half yr old German Shepherd. She needs SO much training and socialization. She is beautiful and super smart but she has bad manners (not her fault). I only wish the other people in the house would work with us to get her to a better place. GSD and I get 1 step forward and then they cause us to go 2 steps back.
Thank you SO much for this video and all the others you do as well! It is super helpful and I did see that you had accidentally given the treat with the wrong hand at the end there. I bet I’ll accidentally do that while working on this trick too.
Great video good recall reminders! Thankyou
+Mary VW Thanks! Glad you found them helpful!
0:25-1:00 oh my heart!! What a sweet puppo!!! Thanks for this great vid. Trainer-in-training here, and am so excited to use games and fun as rewards. (Susan Garrett rocks!!) Thank you for having the appreciation of our AMAZING and lovely canine companions. 💕💕
Hi!! I love your videos, thanks for them! And this one in particular was super helpful! I have 3 dogs, one 16yo border collie, a border collie mix 11mo and a border collie puppy (3mo), and usually I strugle wanting to do everything with all 3 together (training, walking, having fun time etc) . Never occured to me that it was so important (and helpful) to have some alone time with each of them, and I believe some behaviours I'm trying to correct may be linked to that. It would also be super helpful if you could make some more videos with tips related to "pack training and management" for people that like me have 3 or more dogs and want to have a great relationship between all dogs and the humans in the house.
Greatest dog channel ever.
Hey, thanks! I really appreciate that compliment. And I’m really glad you enjoy the channel! We have almost 500 videos for you to enjoy. Thanks for watching! ~Ken
You are so inspiring to watch, love these videos. Thankyou for helping me.
Glad you’re finding our videos so helpful, Tracey! Thanks for watching ~Ken
Excellent videos. Entertaining and informative. As the owner of a 5 month old schmoodle Who is VERY active and easily distracted I really need her to come when called. Fine unless she is distracted Practicing your technique is helpful. 🐶❤️
I would love to see some training videos with dogs that aren’t already trained.
Hi there, Kathleen! The benefit of using a dog who understands the skill a little better is that we can slow down the progressions. So that we can teach you, instead of being too focused on teaching the dog! Here is a link to an example where Harriet the Mastiff learns to take food gently. I had to come up with a couple of unique camera angles to illustrate the learning process;) Thanks for watching! ~Ken
I have a 4 yr miniature American Shepard that was used for breeding. She is not toy or food motivated. I’ve only had her a week.
I love the laugh attack ending. I can so relate to having laugh attacks. 😂
It’s a pretty common occurrence in our household, Brenda! I’m pretty used to it! Thanks for watching ~Ken
I, very, fortunate I found you. Your. Ideas are excellent. Here is my dilemma, have a 10 yr old rescue, who has never been trained, except to sit, stay and down, intermittently. Do you have a video to help. I begun spending a lot of time with my granddaughter’s now 1 yr old Beagle puppy. She is trained very little. How can I help? I am retired. Thank you
Thanks for the tips. Where is that, it is so beautiful?!
Loved this! I'll try out using both toys and treats as I'd like to work on recall outside a lot more (on a long line since we don't have a yard). My puppy's recall has improved a lot since beginning agility training, but he still gets distracted at times and we are still working on improving his handler focus because he's too friendly to everyone. :)
It’s helpful to have someone help you that won’t make a fuss over him when he tries to greet them. Have someone help you, and instruct them to not respond if he happens to get so distracted that he leaves you. It will be a lot less rewarding when he gets there😉 A longline is also a great way to stop him from leaving. A couple little bumps on the line as he’s leaving, then praise him when he stops running away and heads back toward you!
You’ll have to let me know which he prefers. Will a toy or food be more appealing when it comes to trading? Be sure you’re using good timing! You don’t want to be dependent on having a food or a toy with you when you want him to “out”. Happy Training! ~Ken
Really useful video, still all relevant. So glad you decided to dump the music on your videos. It's so offputting when I'm trying to listen to you.
When training "come" with a long lead, how long of a lead do you recommend? We have been watching many of your videos & utilizing the knowledge with our new pup.
What brand/kind of collar is Bee wearing and also what do you use for flea & tick control while walking your dogs in the woods?
Hey, I love the videos! Kayl mentioned in the agility video with Funky and Rad (where her students were duckdonkeys :)) that she teaches all her dogs to focus on the first jump. I'd love to learn how to do that! Thanks guys!
Bethel Saler SAME! Right now, I tell my puppy "watch me" because he likes to look around and if I lose his focus, I've lost him and have to start over.
where was this pond/trail?
Your videos are helping me so much! We just got a new Weimaraner, and he's one smart pup. He's 14 weeks training is going really well. But when we're at a big field and after exercising trying to get him over to put his lead back on is an absolute nightmare. So I'm going to try this :)
Hi there, Claire! For the next while, you should ensure all of your rewarding is happening close to your body. Your knuckles should be touching your shins any time your Weim is being rewarded after playing. Start to build more value for being really close to you. Close enough that you can put his collar on easily😉. Happy Training! ~Ken
Hi!! Looking for the video of you teaching a dog to snuggle. I have a 18 wk old puppy and would like to help her learn snuggles are good not to bite it takes her a min to settle down
Only a border collie would think they can pass through the fence like that!
Yes! (and if they can't, they probably try to work out the physics and geometrical equations while falling asleep to plan for next time. 🤣🤣🤣)
would you say it's beneficial for dogs to be overexcited by food or toy rewards to help when training? Or will that cause frustration in future training? For instance, the dog starts whining, being stressed, or just checks out.
Help.. 4 month old yorkie, he is so stubborn and will not come. I don’t know what to do
Wow,she is a lovely and impressive young dog. Thanks for the great tips. My ACD returns pretty well most of the time so can obviously do with more practice. We go to the beach most days and she loves to play with a ball (strong play drive not much for food) but when it's time to leave she is starting to keep out of reach. I've practiced clipping her leash and then releasing her for more play but she always knows when it's the "for real" time to leave . Is there anything I can do to help get her off the beach or is it just the case of more practice and lots of it? Thanks again for your videos,they're so helpful 😀👍
Hey, beachpups umina! This is a pretty common challenge for people. Your ACD has an amazing ability to know when it's time to go home, and likely knows EXACTLY how long your arms are so she can't be leashed;)You need to put a light, long-line on her. That will allow you to practice your recall, and your recall ending (which is where a lot of people struggle, so you're not alone). You can work you ball retrieves, and include a leash being clipped on as the action that is the ending for each repetition. Having that long line will allow you to try these exercises with your actual leash, but if she doesn't want to listen, you'll still have control of the long line, and she can't put herself into a dangerous situation, or a bad learning experience. Being at the beach is lots of fun for her, and I can appreciate that she wouldn't want to leave. But by training her through the leash attaching part of your recall, you'll build tons of value for that behavior specifically. You can even attach her leash and play a game of tug if she really loves toys. Keep me posted on your progress, and Happy Training! ~Ken
McCann Dog Training thanks so much for the great tips! These working dogs are wonderful,smart and fun dogs but at times WAY too clever 😂 She loves her toys and ball in particular so this should be great for her. I will certainly let you know how I get on with her🐾👌
I have a dog, she's a 10mo old, outdoor poodle-pyranese mix and i can't get her motivated by anything, even bacon! She always wants to do her own thing and lately we've been having to tie her up because she wanders over a mile away and off our homestead. When in a leash, she's obedient as can be. When she's not on a leash however, she'll walk away from you while calling her, even when waving food or toys. She doesn't seem to be motivated by anything. How do I reinforce recall and what other things might i try to motivate her?
I would like to see how you set up your backyard for your pack. Our pack has run down all our grass and we need to cover the bare dirt. But with what?
Hi there, Jan! Using pea gravel is a nice option, if you find your dog’s are turning your lawn into a mud pit. The gravel allows for better drainage. Thanks for watching! ~Ken
Looking for tips for a shy, fearful 7 mo old puppy. Also how can I time her bowel movements to am or evenings? She tends to need to go when we are away at work (1-4pm).
Deborah OReilly-Christensen hire a local kid or a dog walker to make sure she gets out when she needs to!
The problem I am having is that we need to make a difference between come and come here..COME being the very serious recall that you never use unless needed. Come here is less demanding and serious. I don't get how those 2 commands are going to sound different to a dog
I would love to teach my dog how to roll over.
Whe. Teaching a trick like weave do you have to say the command first
I was "gifted" a 6 month old golden retriever/border collie (this is a guess) mix. She is biting my ankles and my wrists, hard. Hasn't broken the skin but close and it hurts. How do I break her from this?
Hi there, Gabe! Keeping your pup on a house-line will give you more control of her in this scenario. You’ll be able to quickly turn her away without making it seem like a fun game. Here is a link to a video about using your house-line to have more control of your pup: Puppy Training Essentials - Your Puppy House-Line - th-cam.com/video/45kdNR6nAOs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching! ~Ken
what if you guys had individual videos for agility training like one video could be how to train your dogs the weave poles for ex. and you could have them categorized foundations stuff and competition level stuff!? and another video idea could be a meet all my dogs video... and something that i wanted to ask is how did kayl train funkee to "backpack" go on her back.?
These are some great suggestions Madison! You will definitely see some of these in our future videos. Thanks!
McCann Dogs thanks glad I could help I love your videos
I’d like to know how to teach eye contact with my puppy and what command would you use. My puppy doesn’t make eye contact even when waiting for permission for her food. I blew on her head and then she looked at me and then said yes and rewarded her but somehow it doesn’t seem right to do that. Thanks in advance for your help. 😁

Happy Training!
@@McCannDogs yes I’m sorry I found it afterwards. Thank you so much. We’ve been practising. Not as easy as your videos lol. Also retrieval. Not as easy as videos. Have to up the anti. Tuna snacks!! Gonna make them this weekend. 👍💕
Another great video! Would love to see a finger gun trick!
Hey, Melissa! We actually have a video to help you with that: How To Teach Your Dog To "Play Dead" th-cam.com/video/TtsXj1V0Lk4/w-d-xo.html
Happy Training! ~Ken
Somewhat helpful, however your dog already easily comes to you. I have a 6 month old who is beginning to be fickle about coming..........
What kind of dog is she? Looks exactly like my rescue pup.
Hi Jasmine! Bee-Line is a smooth coated Border Collie! Quite an adorable one if I do say so myself😉 Thanks for watching! ~Ken
Thank you! The shelter I rescued my puppy from wouldn’t specifically tell me her breed. She looks like bee-line minus the tail. Her tail is cropped. But she also looks like an ACD. But thank you!
You guys are so cute and I can tell you love what you do. Are you married?
Hi there, TwoBuck Chuck! We are pretty lucky to get to meet and work with all of the amazing students and their four-legged family members. And in fact we are going to be married soon. You can actually check out the video we posted on the channel of our engagement story: th-cam.com/video/2EPgSCX89vA/w-d-xo.html
It's not dog training related, but it sure was an amazing experience! Thanks for watching, Happy Training! ~Ken
My 5 month old puppy has found his voice and now wants to bark every time he hears anything in the house including us moving about in the house is starting to wear on me
So this video just shows that your dog can come when called. Not really how to get them to come when called.
