Team "Come to me" is one of the main teams in dog training. It is used to call an animal to its owner and develops obedience. It is better to start practicing the "Come to me" command from an early age.
Instructions
Step 1
Dog training is conducted in a secluded area without distractions. The animal must not be fed. First, they begin to train the dog on a long leash. To reward, you need to put a few pieces of a treat in your pocket.
Step 2
The dog is released by holding the end of the leash. Then her attention is attracted by a nickname and a delicacy is shown, at the same time the command "To me" is pronounced. When the dog runs up, they give it a treat, approve of it with an exclamation of "Good" and stroke it.
Step 3
Next, you need to teach the dog to sit in front of the trainer. To do this, when she runs up on the command "To me", they press her hand on her back and raise the treat up, after adopting a sitting position, the dog is encouraged with an exclamation "Good" and is given the treat.
Step 4
In order for the dog to learn to run up to the exclamation "To me" and sit down near the left leg, you need to call her with a command, take the leash, circle around him clockwise and sit on the left, and then encourage. You can use a treat. It is shown to the dog, which ran up on the command "To me", and when it reaches for it, it is shifted behind its back in its left hand. Give it to the dog only after it sits at the left leg.
Step 5
The command "To me" is considered fulfilled if the dog from any distance at the first call runs up to the trainer, bypasses him and sits down at the left leg.
