Female Dog Names Choosing the Right Name For Your Girl Dog

Whether you have adopted a cute little female puppy or your new dog is a bit of an older lady, you'll find that you need to think up a name for her. Naming your new dog is a fairly important part of making her part of your family, and you'll discover that the more thought you put into it, the better. There are lots of great names out there, so take some time to make sure that the one that you choose is perfect.

There are a couple key things to remember when choosing a female dog name: short and sweet is better, don't choose a name that rhymes with a typical command (like Stay, Fay!), and remember that the whole world will hear you call your dog's name...so keep it clean!

First, take a look at your favorite media. You'll find that there are a number of different ideas just in looking around at your favorite movies. Maybe you were a Gone With The Wind buff when you were a young girl, and your new puppy's as sassy and bold as Scarlet, or as shy and sweet as Melanie. What about Shakespeare? While you might need to watch out if you name your new dog after someone as sinister as Titus Andronicus's Tamora, you'll certainly have less to worry about if your dog ends up fitting the name Ophelia, or Desdemona, which can be shortened quite adorably to Desi.

Maybe you're someone who prefers old-fashioned names. If you prefer slightly more old fashioned names, think about something like Pearl or Lucy. Maybe you wouldn't mind having a name with a slightly more modern sound, like Ashley, Haley or Brooklyn. Get to know your dog, and remember that even if she's a puppy right now that she won't be forever. Make sure that the name you choose will suit her four years old as well as it does when she's only six months old.

When choosing your new puppy's name, keep in mind that it should be relatively short. You'll find that the shorter it is, the easier it will be for your dog to distinguish it from other sounds and to recognize it. Choose a name that you'll be comfortable putting on any veterinarian's forms or shouting out for your neighbors to hear. You'll find that getting yourself used to the name is as important as making sure that your dog is!

There are plenty of sources out there when you are considering naming your new girl dog. If you want something a little more exotic than the normal Honey or Molly, why not think about place names? A particularly elegant dog might wear the name Kyoto or Dresden very well, though your dog seems a little flashier than that, you can consider Vegas! No matter what name you choose, make sure that your dog will respond to it, and that it can be said or called very easily!

Many pet people are dog people. The great thing about dogs is that they can be the perfect pet for most anyone. There are cute, cuddly dogs, scary guard dogs, farm dogs, fetching dogs, show dogs and many many more. For some however, they have dogs for hunting purposes. Here, we'll take a look at the best hunting dogs as well as some unique and interesting hunting dog names that will give your dog an identity of its own.

There are many types and kinds of dogs to choose from, some are better for hunting than others. If you are looking for a true hunter, choosing from the following list of dogs would be in your best interest. The best dogs for hunting are the Basset Hound, Weimaraner, Beagle, English Foxhound, German Hunt Terrier, Longhaired Pointer, Shorthaired Pointer, Irish Red and White Setter, Labrador Retriever, Spinone Italiano, English Cocker Spaniel, Treeing Walker, Brittany Spaniel, Coonhound, Vizsla, Welsh Corgi, Sheepdog or Terrier.

Now if you are hunting for a specific animal for example deer, raccoon, duck, etc, one of these dogs may be better suited than the others. For instance, basset hounds and coonhounds are perfect for hunting raccoons and other small animals, whereas sheepdogs and terriers are better for rounding up sheep or other livestock on a farm. Doing research will help you to determine exactly what dog will be right for you.

Once you've chosen your dog, the next thing to do is to name it. Giving any animal a unique hunting dog name will give them character and an identity of their own.

Make a list of all of the hunting dog names that you would like to give to your dog. Use each for a day or two, and see which feels the most comfortable. Sometimes the dog will even respond better to certain names than others.
If you adopt a hunting dog that already has a name, it is suggested that you keep the current name, because if you are out hunting, you need the dog to respond to your call.

Dog Names Finding Unique Cool And Funny Names For Your Dog

Congratulations!.after searching long and hard at the shelters, thru the newspaper and even enlisting friends and family in your search, youve found the right dog! So whats next? Giving him/her a proper name of course!

Ohyou think to yourself, just any ol name wont do. Its got to be unique, something different! Well, allow me to give you a few dog naming categories that will hopefully help you to come up with some really novel names for your four legged friend.

First though, when coming up with a name keep in mind a few things to watch out for.

1. Stay away from names that might be potentially embarrassing to both you AND your dog. The name Pee Wee might be cute at first, but once the joke gets old, think of how youll feel a year from now when you have to call Pee Wee home at night. Embarrassing names could also apply to negative words that might rhyme with your dogs name.

2. Theres been a tendency in recent years to give dogs human names. Though theres nothing wrong with this, be kind to your pooch and name him after someone you like. Also, if want to name him after someone you know, better check with that person first to see if its alright. Im not sure how much your human friend Max will like hearing.Get off the couch Max! or worse We took Max to get fixed today.

3. If possible, keep the name to one or two syllables. Dogs not only learn it quicker, but it makes them easier to train as well.

On with the names!.

In this article Ive listed just 3 of the many dog name categories that might help you to think a bit outside the box when coming up with great puppy names. They are.

Unique Dog Names: Have you ever considered naming your dog after something that you eat or drink? Im serious. Allow me to give you just a few examples that will hopefully get your creative juices flowing...

Bon Bon: I can see this as a good name for a small black dog.
Caviar: For a dog with expensive tastes. Maybe a Poodle?
Jalapeno: A good name for a dog with a sometimes fiery disposition.
Crouton: Another good name for a small breed. Maybe a Chihuahua?
Latte: Possibly a good name for a black dog.
Kahlua: I can see this name on a brown dog.

As strange as it sounds, many more food and drink related dog names can be as close as your refrigerator, pantry or liquor cabinet!

Cool Dog Names: The dictionary defines the word cool as something thats fashionable, or hip. To me, when it comes to dog names, a name that is cool is a name that one doesnt normally hear. One that is creative enough to be memorable. And that perhaps matches that particular dogs appearance or disposition.

Heres just a few names from my site that I put into the cool dog name category for starters.

Aspen, Azure, Capri, Charisma, Denali, Java, Mahala, Maui, Mignon, Nirvana, Pirouette, Rio, Sahara, Sierra, Taboo, Tiara

Funny Dog Names: By funny, Im referring to cute dog names that will match its physical appearance. Heres just a few ideas..

Espresso: For an energetic black dog.
Kisses: For a small affectionate pup.
Brutus: For a BIG dog.
Putt-Putt: For a dog with short legs.

Heres some additional ideas.

Big Dog Names: Barbarian, Big Foot, Butkus, Chewbacca, Genghis, Godzilla, Hummer, Terminator, T-Rex, Tsunami

Small Dog Names: Doodle, Gumball, Kewpie, Laptop, Nibbles, Widget

For additional funny ideas.think opposites! Peanut for a BIG dog, Attila for a small dog.

If you spent as much time as you did when finding the perfect dog, why not spend a little extra time in finding the perfect name? Your dog will thank you for it!
