You need to think about how others may refer to you. You should also consider how you would like to be called. Are you more comfortable calling yourself "dog" or your "pet"?
Here are some tips for getting started.
-
Pick a name that fits your dog's breed. If you're familiar with the breed (e.g. Labradoodle), search for names associated with it. Or ask someone who knows dogs well to suggest a name based on the breed.

Think about the meaning of the name. Some breeds have names that are based on people or places. Others are nicknames. Because he was always running, the name Rover was given to a Labrador Retriever.

Be sure to include the name of the owner. Although it's a good idea to name your dog with your last name, don't forget to include the names of your family members. You may have your dog as a part of your extended family.
