Help! I Don't Know What to Name My Puppy!?!?

New puppy? Having a hard time trying to name it?  No worries! We understand that naming a pet can be quite difficult and often time consuming. We've been through it ourselves. Trying to find the perfect name for our perfect pet. PetTastics is taking the sweat off your brow with this one. We are giving you useful tips for naming your perfect pooch. Let's face it, Fido is a little overused these days!


  • Before you begin this process make sure to have a pen and pad. Trust us, you'll need it!  Having these things handy will make your selection process a lot more organized. 
  • If this happens to be a family pet, grab the entire gang and make this a joint effort. Jot down names as you guys yell them out. You can make it into a game!
  • If its just you and your new pooch, involve some close friends to assist you. The more the merrier. 
  • Jot down 20-30 possible names. No matter how silly or extremely long they are, write them down anyways. You'll end up eliminating them one by one.
  • Keep in consideration the breed of your dog, the size, the color. It could be extremely helpful with the process. For example, a Chihuahua is relatively small so a name such as "Tiny" might work. Chocolate Labs have brown coats, so maybe "Brownie" can work! 
  • If you have small kids, try to choose a name that they are able to say. A dog listens when his name is called and that often instills trust. 

In a nutshell, this is a new edition to your family. Despite the fact that it is solely up to your discretion be aware that your pet's name will stick with it forever. Keep it fun, safe and reliable!
