Drem!
I have a pretty young dog - she knows a few of the standard commands, but not really many.
My main problem is - because of work I am away about five days a month, and the dog sitter (a really nice, older lady with a huge garden and three dogs of her own) is using the standard commands as...well, for everything - thus they are just "recommendations" for the dog any longer :(
Well, I thought of teaching her (the dog) again the commands, but just in a different language (the sitter can only speak german) - I at first thought of english, but well: Dovahzul - If I can learn it, she will too :D
So, you have some ideas on command-words?
I thought of the following:
kriist - "stand", so the dogs stops and stands
nok - like "down" - to lie on the ground
praal - to sit
Any other ideas?
The one where the dog has to go with its shoulder by your knee? ("Fuss" im Deutschen) - Parq?
This is pretty similar to praal and might prove a problem.
Also some sort of "no" or "stop": I thought of siz - lose. This is a nice word to say strongly (you know, snakelike sizzling through your teeth in a deep voice xD)
Any thoughts or ideas?
Or any other commands? ;)
Kogaan!
