#20 Selecting an Appropriate Dog Name
Choosing a name for your dog involves careful consideration. It’s not just about picking a name that sounds good; it’s also about avoiding confusion. Names that resemble common commands like “no,” “heel,” or “sit” can be problematic. Dogs might mistake these names for commands, leading to confusion during training or daily interactions.
Additionally, overly complex names may be difficult for dogs to recognize. A good rule of thumb is to select a simple yet distinctive name, preferably with two syllables and ending in a vowel, to ensure your dog’s clarity and recognition.
