Quick Rules for Choosing a Dog Name
- Short is Good: Dogs usually hear the first syllable.
- Words ending in an "a" or "e" sound work well.
- Two syllable words are easiest to teach.
- Choose a name you can hear yourself shouting down your road (You never know when your sweet little fur ball is going to take off.)
- Pick a name that doesn’t sound like a training command
- Pick a name that doesn’t sound like the name of someone else in the family.
- Use the same name always; dogs don’t understand nicknames.
