So you’ve brought a little bundle of (doggy) joy home after endless nagging from the kids and now you’re all wondering what to call this new addition. Naturally, you turned to the oracle of knowledge: the internet, for the answer. Well done.
Like human names, pet names go in and out of fashion and so you won’t hear any puppies down at the dog park named Rover, Spot or Fido anymore. The good thing is unlike human babies, the naming options for fur babies are pretty much only limited to your vocabulary.
Things to consider when naming your pup:
~ Pick something you and the kids can say – and your dog can learn – easily.
~ Experts suggest you stick to names with two syllable names such as Bella and Rocky so your dog can differentiate between its name and a typical command (sit, stand, stay etc).
~ Remember you will have to call this name out across your yard, in public, where people can hear, so don’t make it too ridiculous or embarrassing – for you and your dog’s sake.
~ If you want to want to go unique then think of famous people you’re a fan of, your fave shows or even use everyday items for inspiration.
~There’s no harm in waiting a while until your dog shows its true personality.
