Tips for Naming Your Dog
You may keep your dog for up to 15 years or more, depending on the breed and size. A strong, traditional name will last longer than a trendy, quirky name. Classic or regal names are usually a good choice. Also, a name should not be overly difficult. Your dog will learn and understand a one- or two-syllable name more easily. Avoid names that sound too similar to other people in the house, such as Jax (Max) or Lady, and names that are too near to demands, such as Jay (stay) or Moe (no) (Lainie).
