| Well I found out that good boy is a little long and the tone has alot to do with it. Another thing with good boy, is that is so common to say in many situations that it holds no value. I find that is a good word for encouragement for doing recalls. While they are coming to you, it provideds the encouragement to continue coming to you Thats why "Yes" worked so well with our training...very short and easily duplicate with no change of emotion.
