Nintendogs "Learning its name" how long! does it take!?

Question

Ok, i have tryed teaching my nintendog "Coco" her name and she learns it then i comfirm it, then it says she has to get used to it, but then she never comes to her name to get used to it, then she forgets her name,,,, ugh how long will this take.

Answer 1

Maybe make sure that your saying it really clearly. i had loads of trouble with mine too and it helps if you arn't really close the ds. I stayed like a few inches away and it sounded clearer. What kind of dog is it too? Sometimes ( I know this sounds stubid) different kinds of dogs are smarter than other kinds of dogs on the game. like the Beagle is one of the dumbest you can get!

hope this helps

Answer 2

it took me 2 weeks lol! dont do it in a loud place, do it in a quiet place. don't put the DS too close to your face or it will only pick up your breath. it will think its name is all breathy and loudish. just do it in a quiet place with the DS at about half arm legnth. speak with the same volume as  you would if you were having a regular conversation.

Answer 3

The default setting for microphone sensitivity is high, so you're okay there. Hold the DS about six inches from your mouth and say the dog's name. Eventually, it will learn its name...and then, if it's your first dog, you'll have to train it how to sit! I've found that dogs who have "a bright personality" and are "recommended highly for first-time dog owners" learn the quickest. Good luck!

Answer 4

Ugh, that's the most annoying part of that game.

Just keep it as far away as you would hold a book away,

Speak normally, like you were talking to someone calmly.

Say it in a searching kind of way, like a mother for her child. Kind of like "Coco???"

Don't get angry and scream at it when recording...because then it has those irritating question marks and it annoys you even MORE!
