Do you think picking a name for a baby is difficult? Than try to find and choose a name for your puppy with the whole family!


Finding puppy names is not so hard since there are sites to be found on the internet with lists of hundreds of dog names you can choose from to name your puppy.

But that does not make it any easier at all.


I remember when we had to pick one years ago when we decided we wanted a dog for a pet. My teenager boys created a list from puppy names they took from the internet with puppy names they liked; both had their own list, which of course were totally different from each other except for 1 or 2 names.

Those were names that I did not like. My husband was no big help either: "Why don't we can call the puppy  "Mister" or "Stupid", he said, "might  be fun when we call it in the park."

Than there we good names that we could not pick because somebody else in the street already had a dog with that name. Or sounded to much as a command like "sit", or where too long or just plain ridiculous.


So what name did we pick? None. Because we decided later to get a dog from the animal shelter and the dog we picled already had a (ridiculous) name: "Trouble". This name suited this Rottweiler fine. You can read more about "Trouble" on The Pets Club. The Pets Club is one of APSense niche communities. On the Pets Club we share our passion for pets and animals in general. We also support organizations for pet rescue and adoption, we show featured animals on our site that are looking for a new home.


Still I am still wondering if would ever have found a suitable puppy name, if we had decided to buy a puppy. So I am curious: how did you choose a name for your puppy? What name did you choose and why did you choose that particular name? Please tell me in a comment.
