Frequently Asked Questions

Nature-inspired names like Cocoa, Brownie, Teddy, Hazel, or Chestnut beautifully match chestnut coats. They carry the warm feel that chocolate companions naturally project.

Say the name in a happy tone, and right away reward your puppy when they make eye contact. Practice a few times a day in brief sessions. Many dogs learn their name within just a couple of practice rounds.
