Do these sentences have problems?

Helllo, everyone:

He just got a telephone call and is very excited.

She just came in the house and is in Mary's bedroom.

Look! I tought my dog to come when I call him!

The dog is really smart. He heard me say "dinner" and knows it's time to eat!

Do those sentences have problems with their tenses? I need to confirm that because I'm not very certain. Please give me your opinion. Thank you for your help!

Here in this sentence, focus more on the relation between "to come" and when - clause

Hi,
it would be better to use present perfect tense. It is frequently used with JUST - when something has just happened and there are some consequences up to the present. So I would check the first two sentences
