Teach your dog to come to you when called - it's one of the most basic and most important behaviors. Essential gear for recall training: treat pouch so the reward is handy, clicker to help create a lasting imprint in your dog's mind at the moment they're rewarded, and a long line to keep you connected until recall is solid.  Some trainers use dumbbells or training dummies too.

Be sure to work with a knowledgeable trainer!  You need to be clear and consistent with your dog and a good trainer is one of the best investments you can make in your life with your dog.
