What Makes For A Great Name For A Female Chocolate Lab?
Sure, many of the popular suggestions do sound great, but what is it that makes a dog name work? We’ll cover plenty of purely color-based names below too but is that all there is to naming your pup?
It’s the personal touch that makes a name work – it has to be something that feels right to you. Whether it’s a relative’s or a friend’s name, or the name of a celebrity, if you like it, that’s all that matters.
Of course, there’s the psychology of dog names too. According to that line of thought, human names should be avoided for pets so that we don’t anthropomorphize them. Although, we don’t really see much harm in that – to each his own.
Another thing to consider is how much you want to train your lab. Retrievers can be trained for various work tasks such as guide dogs or hunting – picking a training-friendly dog name can be effective in that regard.
But, to help you pick a bit more, here are some more suggestions below.
