No wonder - I don't know what "no" is either.  I have the terrible habit of 
saying "no" to our dogs when they are doing something wrong.  But to the dog, 
it has no concept of what "no" is.  Commands like , "come", "sit", and "stay" 
all have definite actions that the dog can be taught.  Our dog trainer 
suggested that when you are faced with this type of situation, follow up with 
a definite command, like "Sam, Come".  This way, the dog knows what he/she's 
supposed to do.
