Frequently Asked Questions

Can give a shortened version alongside a pet's formal name?

Of course! Plenty of pets learn several names. Just be certain you stick to the same consistent name for recall to prevent hesitation.

What's the best way to teach a puppy to respond to their name?

Say the name in a cheerful tone, and instantly treat your puppy when they look at you. Do this a few times a day in short bursts. Many puppies learn their name within just a couple of sessions.

What if I get two puppies together?

Aim for names that pair with each other but sound different. Avoid similar sounding pairs like 'Bilo' or 'Tuna', as this might frustrate the animals during feeding time.

Can rename a pet's name once bringing them home?

Yes! Pets adapt to new names surprisingly well, particularly with consistent association. Begin by saying the new name before treats so they create happy connections right away.
