As she gets older you can tone down the goofy and playful thing into a more dignified 'come'. For now i'll just slap my knees and act dopey while i say 'shasta come!'. Peice of cake.
OH, believe me, I've acted my share of dopey! But when Shasta does her limp puppy routine...it doesn't work. Treats work, though.
