Frequently Asked Questions
Can give a shortened version instead of a pet's formal name?
Of course! Many pets respond to several names. Just ensure you default to the same primary name for recall to avoid hesitation.
Should the inflection when calling a dog's name affect their response?
Yes! Dogs respond best to a upbeat voice. Never using their name in an angry voice, as they may begin to connect it with something bad and hesitate to coming.
What's the best way to teach a dog to recognize their name?
Call the name in a upbeat voice, and instantly praise your puppy when they make eye contact. Practice a few times a day in short bursts. Most dogs recognize their name within a few days.
What if I have two puppies together?
Look for names that match one another but are phonetically different. Avoid similar sounding pairs like 'Bilo' or 'Tuna', as this might confuse the dogs during feeding time.
