call them. This is a basic form of training and is one of the
first things you want to teach your dog before moving on to more

Figure out which treats they like the most. Whatever treat gets
the most positive reaction is the treat you want to use. Once
you've figured this out, invest in purchasing a supply of these
treats so that they are handy at all times.
Start by going into the house, and calling the dog by his name.
Once he or she arrives at your feet, give them the treat.
Consistently repeat this process periodically. It will teach the
dog that if they listen to you, and come to you when you call
them, they will be rewarded for doing so.
Once you have done this pattern enough times inside the house,

they arrive, give them the treat and show them that you are

your home before moving outside. You may find that it is more
difficult outside to get your dog to come to you than it is
inside your home.
The most important thing for you to have when training your dog
is patience. Your dog may not get it the first time, and may
ignore you. This is why giving him the treat is so important.
