Description

Sarah Hodgson unpacks one of the most important (and misunderstood!) cues in dog training: Come. Over time, many dogs start to associate recall with the end of fun, confinement, or frustration, making them hesitate when it matters most.

Through real-life stories and simple, joy-based training techniques, Sarah shows you how to rebuild Come as a word your dog loves to hear. From anchoring it in positive moments to turning it into a game, you’ll learn how to make recall a celebration, not a command. By the end, you’ll have tools to create a faster, happier response—one rooted in trust, connection, and excitement to be by your side.
