NUVET LABS: SIMPLE DOS AND DON’TS FOR NAMING YOUR DOG
You have made the fun and life-changing decision to add a dog to your household. The only problem is, you can’t figure out what to name him. Fortunately, NuVet is here to help with a few naming dos and don’ts that we think you may find helpful. Keep reading to learn some helpful naming tips.
NuVet Labs: Simple Dos and Don’ts for Naming Your Dog
Dos: Make sure it doesn’t sound like a
command Because learning commands is really
important for your dog, you will want to make sure that you do not select a name that is very similar to a command as your dog could become confused.
For example, don’t name your dog “Clay” because it sounds a lot like “stay” and “Flo” sounds really similar to “no”.
NuVet Labs: Simple Dos and Don’ts for Naming Your
Dog Have it end in a long vowel By selecting a name that ends with a
longer vowel sound you can help avoid any confusion with shorter consonant ending commands.
In other words, your pup won’t get his name confused with a command.
For example, the name “Sparky” doesn’t come close to “Sit,” “Stay,” “Down,” or “No.”

Remember who will be hearing it Make sure to keep in mind other people
will be hearing your dog’s name. When you go to the vet, the groomer, the
dog park or anywhere else with your pup people are going to hear you address your canine friend.
Choosing a name that is offensive or inappropriate could upset somebody or cause problems.
NuVet Labs: Simple Dos and Don’ts for Naming Your
Dog Observe your dog’s
personality One great way to come up with a fitting
name for your pup is to observe him or her for a while.
Take a few days or more to get to know your new friend.
Notice any quirky, cute behavior inherent in your dog.
It could help you pick out the perfect and enduring name.

Pay homage to a famous dog
Another great way to come up with a name for your dog is to select a name from that long list of famous dogs.
Benji, Lassie or Clifford are a few to pick from. You may find that your special friend reminds
you of a famous and endearing canine. Look for that special name in favorite books,
films, cartoons and even politics.
NuVet Labs: Simple Dos and Don’ts for Naming Your
Dog Don’ts:Don’t name your dog after somebody
you know It is generally not a good idea to name
your dog after somebody you know. No matter how good your intentions are
the possibility exists that you could hurt feelings or cause offense.
When coming up with a name keep the family tree, workplace, or your circle of friends out of it.

Don’t make it complicated Dog’s respond best to simple names. One
or two syllable names are always the best.
Anything long or complicated will just cause confusion and could be unsuccessful.
Names that start with sharp consonants, s, k or c all good places to start.
NuVet Labs: Simple Dos and Don’ts for Naming Your
Dog Don’t rush into it Don’t feel like you need to come up with a
name immediately. Take your time to get to know your dog. There
is no rule on when your dog should have an official name.
It won’t even hurt to try a few of your top picks to see how they roll off the tongue or how your dog responds to them.
You might find your dog has a preference, in which case your job just became easier!

Don’t change it If you are adopting a dog that already has a
name the general rule of thumb is not to change it, especially if your pooch is perfectly happy with it.
If you absolutely must change the name (for example your new canine friend just happens to have your least favorite high school teacher’s name) then pick a name that sounds similar.
So, if you have a hard time reconciling your awesome new friend with the name “Barry” see if you can tolerate “Jerry” or “Harry”.
