Naming a dog is a very important decision - you and your pet are going to be stuck with it for the next few years! You have to make sure it’s something you like, and that you won’t mind shouting in the dog park in front of other dog owners!
Dog names should also be short (2 syllables max), and shouldn’t sound like any other command you usually use with your dog (e.g. ‘Kit’ sounds a lot like ‘sit’, which can be confusing)!
But here’s the fun part - actually choosing a cute, fun name perfectly suited to your pet. So here are some great name ideas for your new Samoyed!
