The Dog’s Name
Many of you may think I have “lost my mind” to even mention this command … however, this is singularly the most important thing you, as a puppy raiser, will teach your dog.
What does it mean?
The dog is to look up at your face no matter where he is. Whether he is at your side or lying on the floor somewhere, when his name is spoken, he should look at you! This is called eye contact and is extremely important.
What it does not mean?
The puppy jumps up and comes to you when you say his name.
