Dog owners often give their large dogs an intimidating name that elicits an unfavorable response from their visitors. This, in turn, elicits an unfavorable reaction from their pet. Dogs understand what is going on – they get a feeling about what a human is experiencing or even saying. Therefore, you need to give your pet a name that talks about your expectation of your relationship with him/her. Only then will your dog engage happily with you and all your visitors. In other words: dogs understand when they are being laughed at or demeaned.
