Subject: Had to laugh about not saying "No" to a dog. Our trainer said most dogs think their name is "No spot." He also recommended using their name as a command - so that when they hear it, they stop and ideally come toward you. My favorite command may just be "Leave it." It can be used for just about anything you want a dog to ignore, from people food, to little kids, to other dogs. It keeps them out of all kind of trouble.
