LPT: if your dog is being playful and you need to catch them, try running away to have them chase and catch you.

My dog stopped falling for this after I got her to chase me back into the house a few times

Extra pro tip for new dog owners:

Try to never, ever, EVER. chase your dog. If they don't think it's a game, they won't do this.

Of course there are emergencies, but try to always make it a game of them coming to you.
