This could be, ‘Come’, ‘Here’, or you can even use a whistle, just make sure you choose your word and stick to it. Begin by teaching your dog your chosen cue word for the recall. To introduce the word, stand near your dog and call them to you with lots of enthusiasm, using your chosen cue word and their name. When they come to you, give them a treat, or play with a toy for just a few seconds before stopping and moving away. Keep repeating this throughout the day, around your house, and your garden if you have one, until you’re happy that your dog understands the word. Once you’re happy they understand, try calling them when they’re in different area of the house, making sure you reward them as soon as they appear.
