well, firstly only use her name for good things, such as to get treats, food or play. Try not to use her name in the same sentence as the word NO or anything negative

Everytime she responds to her name give her a treat

heh. well, if u are giving extra treats make sure to reduce her food accordingly
i found it really easy to change my dogs name, i just made sure i used it alot and praised her when she responded.
From Luz's response am i understanding she had another name b4? if that is the case, then say the old name and add the new name onto the end. So if it was cujo, call her cujomuse and gradually take away the cujo bit so tis just muse. I didnt need to do this but if u find it helps then do that

I think Vex is offline now Jenny but yes he was going to call her cujo when I was last chatting to him, might be my fault he changed it, going on about rabid dogs and all. Sorry Vex if I have put you off your chosen name but at least now you have your very own muse. Sorry you have to stop me sometimes I'm very naughty.

well as shes only 8 weeks old i think even oi is somthing she responds to. however i decided not to call her cujo after watching that awful film.

Being a girl i found it hard to come up with a name. The idea was to get a boy and call him tucker. But Muse is ok.. i think i dont really know she just makes me laugh running round and getting violent with cardboard. lol
