What Makes For The Best Hunting Dog Names?

Of course, a hunting lab’s name is a matter of much more than just whether it’s cute or funny. Instead, a hunting dog’s name is going to be a big part of how you communicate with your dog when you’re out in the field.

So, while Princess is a great name for a female dog, some hunters may feel like shouting “Princess!” across the forest is less than ideal. Similarly, extra-long dog names, while often cute and funny, also aren’t great for quick and efficient communication.

And then, there’s the question of training – something hunting dogs have to deal with much more so than family pets. As it turns out, what you name your dog does matter for how its training goes too. Some names are just more effective than others in that regard.

And, lastly, there’s something to say about the psychology of dog names. Many experts speculate that giving pets human names isn’t a good idea as it further urges us to anthropomorphize them. Many people are ok with that and you might be too. But it’s still worth it to consider this before you name your hunting dog.

With that little bit of theory out of the way, let’s jump into a few more name categories below.

A pet’s name is often something superfluous. It’s something that really only holds value for us and not so much for the dog. Pet canines would neither know nor care what their names mean or what they sound like to our human ears. Still, it is fun to know that your pet’s name means something cute, funny, or plain awesome.

With hunting dogs, however, things are a little different. Not only is it cool to name your hunting lab something great but your dog’s name has a much more practical function too. So, even if none of our 100+ suggestions above have caught your eye, we hope that you name your female lab hunting companion something truly fitting.
