article: If your co-workers or friends are having difficulties understanding you, even if you've been practicing on your own, it might be time to seek out a professional speech-language pathologist (SLP) for help. SLPs work with clients on speaking rate, rhythm, intonation, public speaking, conversation, and accented sounds. Many larger universities have high-quality speech-language pathology clinics, so check your local university first. Use the search tools at non-profit organizations for speech-language pathology to find a certified SLP. A basic Internet search for "accent reduction," "accent modification," or "dialect modification" and the name of your locality. Some resources offer individual training, while others have group lessons. Group classes might be useful if you want to practice your accent with a wider variety of people. Individual sessions are an option if you want to build more confidence before you practice with others, or if you need a more flexible training schedule. Some clinics and professionals will request a phone consultation to evaluate your needs and goals before beginning your training. In order to help you meet your particular goals, your SLP will first evaluate your speech patterns. He or she will ask you to read texts and words of various lengths, as well as engage you in a conversation. He or she will be listening to your pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, and syllable stresses.The SLP will also listen to your speech in conversation. With your SLP, determine your goals for your accent modification process. These goals should be based on your personal and professional needs, as well as the evaluation of your southern accent you completed. Some goals are highly career related, such as preparing for presentations, performances, or interviews. Be as specific as possible when having this conversation with your SLP. Your later sessions, in some cases, will be aimed at achieving these specific goals, so be clear about them early. You can also adjust them along the way, as your skills and needs change. The sounds of your first language, including regional dialects, were imprinted by the time you were a year old, so you'll always have the hint of your original accent in your voice. Continued practice with your new, neutral dialect will reduce the effect of your accent over time.

As soon as you get your French bulldog, make your dog part of your family and household. Don't feel like you need to shield it from noisy activities or energetic family members. Just make sure the activity or noise is non-threatening. For example, don't tease your new dog by chasing it with a broom or vacuum. This will cause it to fear the noise or you. Your French bulldog should be comfortable with riding in vehicles. This way, if you ever need to take it to the vet, your dog won't be traumatized. Riding in a car will also introduce your dog to street sights and sounds from the car window. To keep you and your dog safe, your dog should be secured in a harness or carrier while you're driving. Just remember not to take your dog along in the car if it's a very hot or humid day. Dogs can die if left in a hot car, even if left alone for only a few minutes. Choose a dog park so your dog can practice playing with other dogs and interacting with humans. Playing at the park is also a good chance for your dog to burn off some energy. Just be sure that your dog has had its first two distemper vaccines before taking it to a dog park. To prevent dog fighting and keep control over your dog, keep it on a leash. You should try to expose your dog to as many different dogs, people, and sights and sounds as you can. If you feel like your dog needs more interaction, consider signing it up for a socialization or obedience class. Your French bulldog will get personal time with other humans and dogs while getting important training. You can find dog classes at local community centers, through 4-H clubs, or pet shops. You can also ask your vet to recommend socialization classes.
