Just be consistent with saying Max, and say it often. Pair it with good things like petting, feeding, praising. |
I agree! I changed both of my adults when I adopted them. Molly used to be Holly and my Max

used to be Austin. Use lots of positive reinforcements! For awhile I called Max "Austin Max" so that he was used to hear Max with his name and I eventually dropped the Austin, so now he knows his name is Max.
He is a cutie... and I definitely think he could pull off being a Max.
