How to Choose a Dog Name Based on Appearance – 14. July, 2015

Your new cute little pup has just arrived home and you are ready to give him or her, their name. This is a task that all dog owners go through when welcoming a new furry member of the family home. Your pup may have a unique look to his coat, face or body that will inspire you to name him or her. There are a variety of names that you can choose based off of the appearance of your pup. The following information will provide you with good ideas and tips on how to name your dog based on appearance.

  •  Freckles or Spot – Dogs such as Dalmatians and those that have specs located throughout their coat can be named freckles or spot.
  • Socks – Some dogs have a coat that makes them look like they are wearing socks. This is the perfect opportunity for dog owners to name their dog socks.
  • Snowball – Solid white dogs with a furry coat are often named snowball. A popular name for white dogs with short coats is Arctic.
  • Smiley – Some dogs have unique markings that make them look like they are constantly smiling. Smiley is a suitable name for these unique dogs.
  • Patches – This name is perfect for dogs that have multi-colored coats that appear to have patches of a variety of colors.
  • Midnight – Dogs that are solid black or dark brown are commonly named midnight.
  • Caramel – Dogs that have a coat that looks similar to the color of caramel will be best suited for this name.
  • Cocoa – Dogs that have a chocolate brown coat will be best suited for this name.
  • Bandit – Many dogs are born with unique markings that may give the appearance of wearing a mask. This name is an excellent option for these special dogs.
  • Bear – This name usually is a good fit for dogs that will grow to be large, with a dark furry coat that resembles the look of a wild bear. Teddy is a common name used for small dogs that are dark and furry.
  • Bella – Dogs that are pleasing to look at and that are considered to be beautiful will appreciate the name Bella, meaning beautiful in Italian.
  • Moose – This name is perfectly suited for large dogs that have a medium to dark coat.
  • Chewbacca – This popular name is commonly used for dogs that resemble the character in the movie.
  • Tank – This name is for dogs that are obviously very large and wide. This is usually noticeable from the time the dog is a young pup. You can also tell if the dog will grow to match this name by confirming the breed of the dog and the looks of an adult dog matching the breed.

The names stated above are common names based on the appearance of dogs. You may find that your pup has even more distinct coloring or appearance that will encourage you to choose a name best suited for him or her. Keep in mind that you will want to name your dog based on what he or she will look like as an adult. Chances are your cute pup that looks like a teddy bear during the early years may grow up to resemble Chewbacca.

Finding the Perfect Name for Your Dog – 22. June, 2015

You are a proud pet parent and dog owner. You are most-likely in the stages of preparing to bring your new furry family member home. Or, he or she may have just arrived. Dog owners have the exciting and fun task of naming their dog. At times this task can seem overwhelming or family members may not agree on the same name causing stress during the naming process. The importance of focusing on naming your dog as quickly as possible is essential to your dog’s well-being. This may sound a bit over the top, but it is necessary since it will come in handy during training sessions, which should take place immediately upon arriving home.

Family Decisions

If you don’t already have a name for your dog in mind, there are quick and easy ways to find the perfect name for your dog. Begin your hunt for the perfect name by having your family members write down their top three favorite dog names on a piece of paper and put it in a bowl. Read all of the names out loud to your family and see which names get a majority of the vote. Narrow down the names by popularity amongst your family members vote. Then have a final vote and the one that wins becomes the dog’s name. This is a proactive way of involving the entire family in the decision as well as keeping peace when choosing a name.

Choose Based on Personality

Every dog has his or her own personality, even if they come from the same litter. Allow your dog’s personality to be expressed through his or her name. If your dog loves to bark, name him or her yappy. Or, choose other endearing names such as sweetie, sleepy, bashful or other descriptive names based on their personality.

Meanings of Names

Many dog owners like to name their dogs by considering the meaning of the name. For example the Native American name “Nita” means Bear. If your dog resembles a furry bear, than this name is a great option. Consider meanings of names from a variety of different languages. If you have always loved a specific country like Spain, France, Italy, Japan and Russia, consider using words from those specific languages that have a meaning that will be suitable for your dog. You can choose names that are descriptive of your dog’s personality, looks or place where you found them or where they were bred.

If you are not able to easily find a name that suits your dog, try searching popular dog names lists and carefully find a name that is suitable for your dog. If you still can’t seem to come up with a name, ask your family and friends to help you. Let them know you can’t decide and give them a list of your favorite names and see which ones they find that is best suited for your dog. Once you have a variety of opinions from family and friends, it will help you make your final decision and give your dog his or her name.
