- It has been proven that dogs have more of a positive response to names that include the vowels, a, e, and i.

- Avoid naming your dog after daily objects or people as it could cause confusion.
Once you have a few favorites, say each name aloud as you would when calling your dog. A clear sound that stands apart from everyday cues can make the name easier to use consistently.
We recommend that you avoid renaming your dog. Therefore, it’s important that you are 100% happy with the name that you will teach your pup from the time it is young.
