 How to get a dog to arrival when you want?

Introduction

Teaching your dog to come when called is an important skill for both their safety and for you to be able to control them. It can also be a great way for them to get what they want, such as treats or a new toy. Let’s look at how you can use this same idea of wanting something in order to get them to come when called:

Say the name of the desired item

  • Say the name of the item in a high, upbeat tone. Dogs have an excellent sense of hearing, so you want to ensure that your dog knows what you're talking about. Say the name of whatever it is you want your dog to come and get (like "bone" or "ball"), but don't yell at him. Keep your voice cheerful and excited so he knows that he will be rewarded if he comes toward you when called.

  • Repeat this step until your dog comes close enough for you to grab onto his collar with one hand while holding out a treat with another hand.

Call their name in a high, upbeat tone

  • Say their name in a high, upbeat tone.

  • If they don't come, walk over to them and say their name again in the same tone, but this time gently tug on the leash (not too hard) while repeating their name again.

Repeat the name of the desired item but don’t say their name again

Repeat the name of the desired item but don’t say their name again. Don’t say anything else. Repeat the name of the desired item again.

If you keep repeating this process, eventually your dog will become conditioned to associate his name with getting what he wants — in this case, a treat!

Toss the item

If you are having trouble getting your dog to come to you, try tossing an item he or she will want.

  • Make sure the item is safe. Do not throw anything that can hurt your dog or cause them to choke on it.

  • Don't throw too hard. If the object is too heavy and fast, it may scare or injure your pup when they catch it in midair. It's best if you can toss something light and soft so that if they do miss catching it at first, they won't feel any pain from its impact on their paws or body as they chase after it instead of giving up right away like some dogs might do if there were no cushioning between them and whatever else was around them when trying their best not to become injured before trying again later on down the road once we've finished throwing another one out there for another round of fetching fun!

This is an easy way for your dog to associate coming when called with getting what they want.

  • The first step is to make sure you have a toy or treat that your dog loves, this will be the reward when they get it right.

  • Then, every time you call your dog and he comes to you, give him the treat or reward. Make sure he knows that the treat is for coming only and not just because he's happy to see you!

  • If at any point in time during training he doesn't come right away or ignores calls then do 1-2 laps around your house before giving him some attention again until he begins coming consistently on his own accord (this means no calling).

Conclusion

This is an easy way for your dog to associate coming when called with getting what they want.
