Do Dogs Know That They Have Dogs Names?
Date: 11 Oct 2011 Comments:0More often than not, a dog owner would make sure that he gives his dog a nice name that he can use to call his pet every day. This scenario is a normal occurrence that happens between a dog owner with a new animal to take care of. But the question is, do animals of this kind actually know that they have their own dogs names? That a great golden retriever is not only a dog but that it has a name Rover? That the cute neighborhood Chihuahua is not only a tiny dog but is actually named Bubbles? And that the fierce looking Doberman of your uncle is not too fierce at all with its name as Cotton?
The thing about these furry animals is that no matter how a lot of people try to “humanize” them by naming them with cute names or even human names and even treating them as if they are real members of the family, at the end of the day they are still dogs. And dogs, just like any other kind of animals, will never know that they have dog names nor will they understand why people are calling them that way. This is because for a dog, when its owner utters its name, it may mean that the dog is being summoned by its owner or that the owner will have something nice to give to it. And that a dog’s name will only help condition the dog to behave the way the owner would like it behave, nothing more and nothing less.
