grain free ones and they're all made in the usa i'm gonna have a link in the description so that you can get yours at pepflow chestnut your breath smells so much better now let's get to work chestnut's only NUMBER_TOKEN weeks old and you know there are some advantages to teaching a younger dog that's under four months or so to come to you when you call them relative to an older dog that's because dogs this young like to stay close to you more than they might when they get just a little bit older so take advantage of that also they probably haven't really formed the habit of running away from you yet let's keep it that way this is a really good time to convince them that coming to you always results in great things the first rule of teaching your puppy to reliably come to you is to make sure they're never in a position to disregard your request so how do we do that we control their environment at all times during the first year of training which means you should be able to get to your puppy NUMBER_TOKEN of the time even if that means attaching the leash to you you can't run away because i have you on leash notice that chestnut is on leash right now even though i'm inside so that i can easily get to him i'm gonna have a video in the description that'll give you an overview of how to adequately control your dog's environment at all times if you've accidentally slipped up on sufficiently controlling your dog's environment you might find yourself in a position where your dog can get away from you if your dog gets away from you it's your fault not theirs just do everything you can to keep it from happening again it's for their own long-term well-being and safety that we do this right first you're going to want to reliably teach your dog how to come to you while inside your house under relatively distraction free circumstances make sure that you're using a treat that your dog absolutely loves today i'm using dehydrated turkey treats but you could use something like boiled chicken i bet your dog would love that first you'll need to confirm that your dog will sit or lie down or whatever they're good at for a treat see that indicates that they're not too heavily distracted now if they were too distracted to take an amazing treat that they normally love that most likely means you're asking them to do too much too soon or under circumstances that are too distracting chess that's a pretty happy dog overall and i think there's a great chance that he's gonna come to me if i just act fun let's find out come on chestnut come on come on good good job oh you're so good try using a high-pitched inviting voice and even use a toy that they really love to entice them you know squeaky toys can be really great for this because they make that fun sound that most puppies can't resist and if you're feeling like it'd be really animated now if your dog were a little bit more nervous you would want to be a bit more low-key when you do this even if you've got to teach your dog to come to you at the short distance that's fine come on even if they crawl to get to you i'll take that too oh that's excellent
