How to Name Your Dog
It’s intimidating to choose a name for your dog, and many people stress over it. It’s a good idea to create a list of names that interest you before you bring your new dog home. Once they’re home, you can mark names off the list as your dog’s personality begins to shine. Maybe when you were looking at names, you were thinking that Cabernet would be a great dog name, but now you’re realizing that you’ve got a rough-and-tumble Jim Beam on your hands. It’s ok to take a few days to choose the perfect name for your new dog!
There are lots of great names for your new dog that are related to alcohol. To make choosing the perfect name easier, pick out a couple of categories that interest you the most, then pick out your top few favorite names from those categories. The more you can narrow down your list, the easier it will be to name your pup. Keep in mind how the name might sound when you call for your dog, as well. It might be odd to call down the street for Vodka to come home!
