Anyways We seem to be experiencing a little puppy regression. He's starting to get way more interested in playing and toys. He used to quickly lock in on us and come running when we called "come", but now he's more easily distracted. H thinks I'm not doing it right I'm trying to tell him in the long run I am. He thinks that if the dog doesn't come I should go get him. But I think that would quickly turn into a game of chase. I figure that I keep calling him and encouraging him to come to me, and when he does even if it takes a little bit longer than it should I Praise him and pet him, in hope that he always connects the word come with a postive feeling that he wants. H thinks I should give him shit when he finally gets there, but when I think like a dog, that would just teach me to not like reponding, or thinking I was doing something wrong. Anyways he is just under 4 months I figure it is just a puppy phase we have to work through.

If a dog only needed one command I would say "come" would be it, ultimately to me this is the one most important commands I can communicate and when he is older I want immediate reponse. Everything else is important too, but I need him to know "come" like a Pro.
