Name Recognition

Working on Name Recognition is obviously the next step. Weather you've taught it or not (maybe you think you taught it and she might even know it but does she quickly respond, maybe she thinks it's punishment, when you punish, do you say for example 'No Molly' or 'Daisy No' if so it's recommended that you teach this, I know I had to ), to make sure that your dog knows her name and respond to it. Now this is the next step to eye contact because she'll learn to look at your face when you say her name. The steps are very similar to teaching eye contact. Just start with these simple steps:

1- Sit still and wait for eye contact. When she gives you eye contact, say her name, then click and treat.

2- When she looks at you again, click and treat, and again for about 2 minutes.

-------------------------

Now you'll need to teach praise word recognition, because obviously pupi doesn't  naturally know what 'good dog' means so you can teach her by following the simple steps above (no clicking).

And that's it. Have fun!

For whom the LORD loves He chastens, and scourges every son whom He receives. If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?

Hebrews 12:6-7
