Picking out a name for your dog just might be the most difficult part of getting a new friend! It is a big decision that you, and your dog, have to live with for years! There are many different factors to consider when naming your dog. Here are a few questions to help narrow it down.
Do you like classic or unique names?
Many people go with traditional dogs’ names, they are classics for a reason after all. Max, Spot, Rover, the list goes on and on. These are all great names. Other people prefer unique names, they want their dog to be the only one with that name at the dog park. Fudge, Ziggy, Lollipop, the possibilities are endless. No matter which way you choose to go, there are so many great options!
How long do you want your dog’s name to be?
This may seem like a strange question, but it is based on science. It has been proven that dogs respond better to names with just one or two syllables. Any longer than that and dogs are usually not as good at paying attention to it. If you want to go with a longer name, that’s okay! You should just be aware that it may take longer to train your dog to come to their name. You could also pick a longer name and call your dog by a nickname. There are so many options!
Do you like human names for animals?
This may not be something you’ve thought of before, but it is worth considering. If you name your dog a human name, there just might come a time where you have to introduce another Sarah to your Sarah. This is an age-old debate and it really is up to you and what you are comfortable with. Just make sure that you are comfortable with the chance that you could be calling “Rodger!” across the park and have a man walk up to you wondering how you know him!
