How to make a dog learn his name

Attentive dog

Human beings need to name everything in order to understand each other better. When we live with domestic animals, whether they are dogs or cats (or others), we also put a name that will identify it, and that it will help us to better relate to them.

If it is the first time that you live with a furry and you would like to know how to make a dog learn his name, don't take your eyes off your monitor. You will see how easy it is to get it 😉.

The first thing, obviously, is to choose a name for the dog. To do this, you can look at the color of its fur, or the character it has. In any case, it is recommended that it be short, of one or two syllables, since it will not cost you so much to associate it with it; on the other hand, if he had three or more syllables he would need more time to learn it.

Once you have decided what you are going to call it, it is time to let you know that from now on it will be called that. But of course, it is a process that will take us a few daysWell, as we know, they can't talk (at least, not like us).

So to get him to learn his name you have to repeat it many times over a few days. For example, whenever you've done something right, we'll say "Toby, great." The name always has to be said beforeOtherwise we would end up making a mess for him and he would not learn it. And besides that, you have to reward it, either with a treat for dogs, a pampering session, a hug,… whatever you prefer; In this way, the dog will associate it with something positive, so that in the very near future, when we call him, he will immediately come to us, because he will know that he will get something that he will love. And you certainly don't want to miss it.

Courage and patience, that being constant in the end you will learn his name. Sure.
