Frequently Asked Questions

How do the buttons work?

Each button has a built-in microphone and speaker. Simply press and hold the record button on the back to record your voice, then press the top to play it back.

What words should I start with?

We recommend starting with everyday words like:

  • “Outside”

  • “Play”

  • “Food”

  • “Water”

  • “Love you”

Pick words your pet hears often and link them to real actions.

How long does it take for my pet to learn?

It varies! Some pets begin pressing buttons within a few days, while others take 1–3 weeks or longer. Consistency, repetition, and positive reinforcement are key.

Are these buttons only for dogs?

No! PushyPaw™ buttons work for dogs, cats, birds, and even some rabbits and pigs. Any curious and motivated pet can learn.

How many words can I record per button?

Each button holds one message of up to 30 seconds. You can re-record as many times as you’d like.

Can I replace the batteries?

Yes. Each button uses 2 AAA batteries (included). To replace, remove the battery cover on the bottom of the button.

Do you offer more than 4 buttons?

Yes! We offer expansion sets so your pet can learn even more words. Check our store for 6, 8, and 12-button upgrade packs.

Is there a training guide?

Absolutely. Just click on Pet button training 101 in the menu for a quick training & information on extra tips to help you get started.

Do the buttons work on carpet?

Yes, but for best results, place them on a flat surface or a non-slip mat so they don’t slide when pressed.
