What`s in a name?

There are so many dog names to choose from. So what’s in your dog’s name? Is it a serious or silly name? Did you pick the name before your dog came into your life? Or did you take one look at your dog and just know the right name?

Was it easy or challenging to choose your dog’s name?

Shelter dogs come with names but whether or not you keep them is up to you. Over the years I have adopted all three of my dogs from local shelters. And out of the three I kept one of their names the same. Shelter dogs learn to adapt to whole new lives with new families so accepting a new name is a piece of cake for them.

Whatever you name your dog, remember one day you’ll be calling it out loud in the dog park, on the street or in your back yard. I say this because years ago I had two cats named “Sambuca and Tequila”. You get the picture now?

Happy name choosing!
