    Dog Names

    So leading on from my last thread about wanting a pup.....
    We're getting a Lab/GWP-X bitch.

    Now we're looking for names, so start thinking people and post them up to give me ideas.

    Choose a name that is easy for the dog to understand .Mine dog is called Inti -a Chetchuan name from Peru meaning El Sol meaning the Sun . For a working dog make everything easy and quick

    All other dogs I've had, I gave simple quick sounding names that had the first sound as the most dominant (if that makes any sense).

    I just have a thing about never using a name twice, so I need fresh ideas.

    Ive got a pair of GWP x Labs, 15mnths and 11mnths, named them Magnum and Chester. Quite fitting Magnum tips the scales at around 38Kg, he's a pretty solid boy

    Bonecrusher I know of another "Ruger" lab as well.

    Hunting themed names are always good for a hunting companion eh. I've been thinking along those lines as well.

    Duck Gunner you have a couple of real nice dogs there.

    I've probably responded to your post on the other forum with a name I used many years ago. Zen.

    Cheers guys! Keep them coming!!

    Hope to pick up the new girl in 5-6 weeks. She's only 3wks old at the mo so plenty of time to choose a name.

    I like the idea of calling them a wild sound...like Hock say (said well enough it sounds like a hind barking)...so you avoid being out in the wilderness calling out Swiggy...or something...
