How Do You Pick The Right Name?
You’re going to be saying your dog’s name for years to come, so you’ve got to be sure it’s a good fit for your furbaby.
Over the years we’ve helped millions of new dog owners find the perfect name. Here are a few tricks that will help you in your search:
- Make sure it rolls off the tongue. A name may look good on paper, but if it’s hard to pronounce, that’s not good for you or your dog.
- Say it out loud. Can you imagine standing at your front door calling this name? If the answer is no, skip it.
- Does it fit your dog’s appearance and personality? You might have the perfect name picked out but it doesn’t fit them, that’s a miss.
- Trust your gut. When you find the right name, you’ll know it!
