dog names

[Angus]

Were torn about our new dog's name, were thinking of either Oliver or Moe... Weve heard opposing views regarding the amount of syllables in a dogs name e.g. 1 is best but 2 at the most etc.. does it really matter?
p.s. were open to votes on either as well!

Just dont' name him anything you will be embarassed to yell in front of the neighours.

I remember the story of a doctor who had a cat he called "Sweet Thing". When he lost the cat and had to go out and call it, all the women in the neighbourhood thought he was coming on to them!

Short names are usually easier for teaching commands, as you can say them faster and one syllable words are usually better for getting a dog's attention. But it really doesn't matter!

Can you show us a pic of him?

One syballe names sound good. Our pets have always been by one of three ways

One syballe names sound good. Our pets have always been by one of three ways:
1. personality
2. apprenece
3. an experience in the short time we had them
or any combo of the three.

One syllable repeated works for me!

How about TAXI....j/k

It is going to sound weird, but I have always wanted a dog (shih tzu) and wanted to name him Samson.

I heard that "s" sounds and long "e" sounds are good for dog names. Most of my family goes by this rule, and some of the pets we've owned were named: Casey (my poodle right now), Lucy, Percy, Pepsi, Sammie, and Sadie. Not sure if it's true or not!!
