How to choose a boy dog name

Pick a name that sounds different from sit, stay, no, and come. A clear first consonant and one or two syllables make the name easier to use during training.

Match the name to energy

A relaxed dog may suit Milo or Teddy, while a bold dog may fit Ranger, Duke, or Maverick. Test a few names over a day before you decide.
