Things to Consider When Naming Your Dog

Names often reflect the character of your pet. Observe your dog for a few days and see if his personality suggests a name. Is he regal? Does she always want to be the center of attention? If so, how about 鈥淜ing鈥� or 鈥淪tar鈥�?

Choose a Name That is Easy

Short, sweet and easily recognizable names work best in getting your dog to be responsive. Use a name that is one or two syllables, ending with a vowel, such as 鈥淪adie鈥� or 鈥淩ocky.鈥�

Don鈥檛 choose a name that is too long or difficult to say. A name such as 鈥淪ir Barks A Lot鈥� will only confuse your dog.

Avoid Names That Are Similar to Cues

Avoid names that sound like commands. Names like 鈥淛oe鈥� sound like 鈥渘o鈥� when called, and a name like 鈥淜it鈥� may sound like 鈥渟it.鈥� This can get confusing for your dog very quickly, so try to steer clear of names that have similar sounds to cues you鈥檒l be using a lot.

Choose an Evergreen Name

Pick a name that will fit your dog regardless of their age. For example, a puppy named 鈥淔uzzy鈥� may not be a good fit after they grow into adulthood.

Test out the name you would like to give your dog for a day or two. Remember any name you give your dog will be a 10-to-15-year commitment for the life of the dog.

Don鈥檛 name your dog after a friend or family member without getting their prior permission. You never know who could be offended.

Practice Makes Perfect

After you chose a name for your dog make sure you use it often so they can learn it more quickly. Don鈥檛 raise your voice every time you call them, and try to use their names in positive, playful settings, such as when you feed them, play with them or pet them.
