What Does Your Dog's Name Mean? Al's Dog Training Tips S:3 EP:1

[@AltheDogTrainer]

Howdy friends! Happy New Year to you all. So, does your dog believe their name means they are in trouble?

[@tubaphonium]

I agree whole-heartedly. I have been trying to be aware of this for some long time and I believe it makes a marked difference. Thank for your great advice and examples for making it even more effective! Happy New Year

[@AltheDogTrainer]

It’s my pleasure

[@marylongoria9431]

I really enjoy this information!

Thanks mom! ❤️

I was thinking about this earlier today. I have been saying Juppi’s name when he does something unwanted, but with a much different tone.

[@AltheDogTrainer]

The tone can help Juppi understand the context. But I imagine you want him to delight when he hears his name

[@gerdapurdy979]

I will definitely be more attentive about it. New Year’s Resolution 😊

Can we "fix" a bad association through positive reinforcement ? Congrats on the channel!

I would have preferred to name our dog, Herbie. Plenty of get up and go, and loyalty beyond the call of duty.
