Yah, I guess you'd have to. We just tap Trouble if we want her attention.

Hi Larry, 
Yes my dog has a sign name.  Sometimes though I need to get her attention if she's not looking at me. But I do use both interchengabley.

Her dog is a Jack Russell and when I first heard of it I was really leery about her being a service dog because of the hyper nature of the breed. But, she does really well. Almost as good as Hoolly!

I'm deaf so have no idea, but when I cue my dog, I use her name before the cue, so Soleil forward, or left or whatever.  People are going to hear it. So I trained her to ignore it if it's a stranger calling her, and to alert me to it if it's someone we know trying to get her attention to get my attention.

But, I am not sure I really like the policies that some schools have about withholding a new dog's name. I think that the decision of when and even if you do want to share your dog's name with others should be up to the handler, not the school.
