When teaching your puppy commands it's important that it reacts to you and comes when called. That's why the command "COME" is an excellent one to teach early on.
When training your young student, try to use the same command word consistently, so as not to confuse your pup. Choose a short, one-word command, not a long sentence. For example, "Come here!" is actually too long, whereas "Come!" is just the right length. After you have called your pup once or twice, it will probably come running to you no doubt with a furiously wagging tail! Give your pup a lot of praise (and the occasional treat) every time it successfully obeys your command so he or she knows that these actions pleased you.
