Names for Dogs

Hillary Kuenn


Naming the family puppy can be a difficult task. There are many resources to help out with ideas and brainstorming, but in the end, a name that really fits your dog is hard to find in a book. The Internet provides a wide variety of searchable databases with thousands of names for dogs and some even allow you to purchase products such as nametags directly through their site.
Internet websites providing lists of names for dogs can be very particular. There are amazing amounts of websites that have names for dogs that only would be suitable for a small number of dogs. For example, I have found sites that list only aristocratic names for dogs, Celtic names for dogs, French names for dogs, Japanese names for dogs, Irish names for dogs, and Native American names for dogs. The most common names for dogs are usually non-gender names. Websites listing names for dogs pertaining to male or female gender, as well as non-gender names are also very abundant. The Pet Net Bookstore offers a wide assortment of names for dogs and you can purchase books, etc, directly from their site.
There are several people who want to help out with this difficult family task, and they have created their own personal websites in an attempt to help you brainstorm. These sites are usually just a comprehensive list of names for dogs, but these can still be very helpful suggestions. Try surfing through geocities.com to find this type of website.
There are professional sites that have lots of suggestions too.
www.dog-names.com is a free and searchable database list of over 6000 popular names for dogs and their meaning. www.petnamesworld.com is a really cool site listing a lot of names of dogs- including ethnic names for dogs and puppies.
www.doggynames.com displays thousands of names for dogs and puppies in a searchable database that provides the meanings of the names as well.
www.puppy-names.com has lots of good suggestions for naming your new puppy.

Dog Worms -- Don't Let Them Get Started

There may be no warning before dog worms strike. It was about two AM, when beneath our bed the new puppy we'd brought home from the pound just a month earlier began screaming. Not yipping or whining this was the kind of agonized screams that'll stand your hair up on end. Our cute, playful new puppy was being eaten alive from inside. He had worms, even though he'd received all the right shots just a few weeks before. Now he was dying, right there under our bed, and we weren't able to save him. The worms were just too advanced. He had been a happy little guy, playful and filled with fun. So...
