train it to walk on a leash first - go to obedience lessons.... (never use choke collars) teach it to heel and walk properly beside you, when the dog is relatively well trained you simply remove the leash and the dog stays with you properly

If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.
