While knowing your name seems like an easy task to accomplish, it can be pretty tricky for puppies. With Daisy we first called her Valentine before deciding that the name Daisy was a better fit. Our indecisiveness caused some confusion as Daisy was not sure what her name actually was. During this week we made sure to continuously call Daisy by her name and not any nicknames so that we do not confuse her any further. As per Zak George’s instructions we used treats to get Daisy’s attention, while also calling her name. Zak George’s video 3 Easy Things to Teach Your New Puppy has been extremely useful in understanding how to teach Daisy her name. Currently Daisy looks at us whenever we say her name but we are uncertain of if she is just looking at us because we made a noise or because she actually knows that Daisy is her name.
