When we are ready to adopt a new pet, we are always enthusiast about it. Amongst the preparation, one of the most exciting thing to do is certainly choosing the name for our pet. Not everyone is aware that the name should have some specific characteristics, especially if we want our friend to be able to associate it.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most suitable name<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In most cases, the name is chosen once the new friend has arrived in our house. Many of us prefer to rely on simplicity, recalling some aesthetic characteristics of the animal such as colour, personality or looks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Others, however, find the sound of the name more interesting, drawing on history, cinematography and literature to choose what they prefer, as well as the world of music or comics.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"insegnare<\/span><\/p>\n

Others, for example, find it fun and convenient to assign a “human” name to their friend, among \u201cCarlo il Carlino\u201d or Jack of Jack Russell.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s say that, regardless of the origin of the name of the newcomer, there are still criteria that must be taken into consideration. The name, in fact, should be rather simple and short, in order to help the animal understand when we are calling him. This means that the classic names such as Fuffi and Fido are not at all trivial, but designed to prevent the animal from getting confused.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, the important thing is that the name of the animal is not too similar to those words that we will direct directly to him. To clarify this concept, lets think of the main commands, such as “stay”, “come”, “sit”. If the dog was named \u201cstray\u201d, it would be difficult for him to understand if we are just calling him or asking him to execute the “stay” command.<\/span><\/p>\n

So we can indulge ourselves as we prefer in choosing the name, as long as these few, simple indications are respected.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to teach their names<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Some of us wonder if there is a way to teach the animal its name and in fact there is. Dogs are able to recognize their name. There are dogs that, once they become adults, still do not understand what their name is, so it is very important to proceed efficiently since puppies, if we want to avoid this.<\/span><\/p>\n

The name, in fact, is essential for each of us, even for our four-legged friends. If the dog or cat were to go away, how would we call him back without a name with which to attract his attention, making him understand that we are talking to him?<\/span><\/p>\n

These are some methods to achieve this:<\/span><\/p>\n
