The Recall/Come is one of the most important things to train your dog to do, and to do well! There should be no other option but to come when called. This is when you break out the good stuff (cheese, diced up hotdog, etc), not the boring regular treat. And it must be fun!

Second most important command is WAIT. Similar to STAY, the dog just stops where they are until you let them go chase something, or you reach them to leash them.

Yes! You're one of the few people I've encountered (even amongst other trainers) who understands the difference between "Stay" and "Wait" 😃

That's one I have taught all of my dogs. I like to walk them off leash when safe, and it has kept more than one of them from running across a street after a squirrel, and once after a skunk! Now if I could get my husband to remember to use the command, we'd be all set.
