Labrador Education: Tips About Come Command

There are plenty of apparent reasons why come command should be included in your Labrador training. Actually it is one of the most vital basic commands each dog must learn to guarantee safety. Once the come command or recall is mastered, probably deadly situation can be forestalled by calling him to you. Apart from safety reasons, mastery of the come command also gives your lab larger freedom in some scenarios. You can allow him to run readily when you are out in the beach realizing that he can always respond every time you call.

In some cases, training a Labrador with come command can be challenging given the proven fact that this breed is commonly described as intrepid and often mislabeled as hyperactive. But nothing is unachievable with correct Labrador training tips. Here is some recommendation to help you train your Labrador with the come command:

- Start training indoors with your dog on leash. Say your dog’s name followed by the word “come.” Do it in such a fashion which will attract or inspire your pet to come (using excited tone, having treats prepared).

- Praise him as fast as he comes to you.

- If your Labrador does not come, tug the leash a little to draw in and encourage him to come. Bear in mind not to drag the leash harshly to stop your dog from associating the command with something negative.

- When he has mastered the command indoors, steadily train the command outdoors and off leash in a fenced-in yard.

- Use the command regularly (during dinner, playtime, to give treats) and never use it to call your dog for negative things such as punishment or baths.

- When you’re teaching the come command, or any other command actually, and your dog doesn’t reply, don’t chase him around. Though it’s driving you nuts, wait until he comes and if he does, never give punishment for it will only associate the command to something negative.

- Labradors are smart dogs but do not expect that this command can be mastered in one session only. Begin with the basic and gradually build on it. Training sessions should also be short as well as pleasurable.
