Naming your New Puppy.

What's in a name? Plenty I tell you. Just as naming our children, which they have to carry the rest of their lives, naming a new puppy is important. How do you figure out what is the best name? Sometimes naming our pets can be very complicated. I know that when Sophia came home I didn't name her for two or three weeks. She grew into her name. But more importantly the naming of a new puppy can be difficult at best. There are some things to take into consideration. One of those is the fact is easier for a dog to understand two syllabled names. Some examples are Bella, Buddy, Cosmo, Lucky and Rocky. The name you give your dog is one of the ways that you communicate with them. So the more complicated the name the less your dog will understand that you are calling them. I know show dogs have long drawn out names for their pedigrees, but at best they are probably called some shortened version. So there are plenty of places to look up names for dogs, and make sure it is a simple two syllabled name so when you communicate with your new family member they will understand who you are speaking to. Also the way you speak to your dog is important as well, they do pick up on the tone of your voice. This is a Jinx approved article. Happy Cats.
