Good Dog Names
 

Our family just got a yellow lab

We are trying to find a good name for him
He is very energetic outside but mellow indoors.
His paws are the size of computer mouses.
Very good dog overall.

Okay
My mom and sister overruled the guys in our house
They Voted his name to be Judah
ya thats what i thought. oh well at least we have a dog.!
I will post pix of him later!!

The name game was terrible with our new pup. It took 5 weeks. We did a contest on facebook with our 4 favorite names and finally a few days before we picked her up we came up with a different name. maxi. Funny thing is, it took longer to name her than our kids. lol

Ya we overruled Judah were still on the search for names

JUDAH!!! Are you kidding?!!! I gave you 20 awesome hunting dog names and you come up with..... JUDAH!! Well at least you gotta dog ( with a pitiful name ). Look fwd to seein pics.
GEN

Judah...atleast you used an 'h' instead of an 's'. :)

You could name him after a US gun manf like Remmington, Winchester, Ruger
After a state: Utah, Missouri, Dakota, Alaska, etc.
Two letter acrynom: MC (hammer), JC (Jesus Christ), MJ (Micheal Jordon), etc

Personally, I don't like to call a dog by another species. I mean would you call your dog 'Cat'? My dog's name on paper is Kimbu Wind'em Kelly (kennel's name, line, name that started with 'K' ). She's tri-colored but mostly black spots so common name is Pepper. But the name that suits her is 'Financial Deficit'.

When we first got our Springer 7 years ago, he was 11 months old and came with the name Pete. The first few times I took him into the woods he would range 50-75 yds away. A man and his son, who also had a Springer in their truck, asked if I hunted him. I said No, but said he would go afield in the Fall. They asked what his range was. I told them 50-75 yds and they said he was definitely a ranger. They asked his name and I told them it was Pete. They went to the dog and said "Are you a ranger, Pete"? I was very suprised when the exact same thing happened less than a week later. Again, a man and his wife, who also had a Springer, asked if he hunted yet and what his name was. And again, they went to the dog and asked "Are you a ranger, Pete"?

Well, you probably know where this story is going. When we filled out his AKC registration papers years ago his name officially became Ranger Pete. Honey's (after my wife's nickname) Ranger Pete to be exact.
Sometimes ya just never know.....

we overruled
Judah
were still on the search

haha we were calling my black lab amigo (spanish for friend) for like a week then my dad came home from working away and said thats a frickin chihuahua name then we gave him his name riley

Diamond, Bruno, or Blaze

I wish i could have the final say when it comes to choosing a name
But i found out one of the important lessons of life
"It is impossible to argue with a female about a dog name"
LOL

So, Judah it is! :)

A yellow lab, huh? well, so much for a nice simple name like Joe, Pete, Fred or Dick. Or even Jake, or Ben, or Rex.

You can't really resort to the old Steven Wright standard and name your dog "Stay", either. "Paws" might be good, but then the dog would have to figure out you don't mean "pause", which is close to "stay" and you'd wind up with a mess.

If you're going to have a retriever, a single syllable name works best when sending him; it just sounds so much more authoritative. i.e. "Jude" rather than "Judah". But either way, a lot of people, especially women, are going to automatically think you're saying "Judy" and will think he's a she.

I've always been partial to names with some amount of whimsy, like "Bark" or "Speak" or the aforementioned "Stay". Something tells me, those won't fly in your house.

In the end, you're going to wind up losing anyhow, so just go ahead and give in to the wife.

I used to have dog named Traz (Short for Alcatraz) becasue he the pattern on his head had two big spots that went down from the top down to his body on each side, and there was lone spot sitting in between and it reminded me of San Fran. Bay and Alcatraz so I named him that. I miss that dog...

I always like the name Buck short for buckshot or just plain Duke

I thought Angus would be sweet

No its going to Be Asher:bash:
I really dont like to argue with females:bash:

I came by a 4 year old Golden.....on a Sunday....I called it Domingo....she answered readily so we modified it to Dominga....
She has answered to Minga for over a year now......totally mellow, kinda like a shadow.
Dan

Sam, I'm noticing a pattern here. Judah... Asher....

Please don't tell us your wife's going to want him circumcised, too?

Hey Bruce Im not married i am 15 with a mom and a younger sister
I got a good laugh though!!!
LOL

Will your dog be registerd? If so they appear to like long names.. How about Sargeant Yellow Dust? You could then call him Sarge, Sargent, Yeller, Dusty or what have you.. Or you could just call him Beetle a name not many would think of..

But Judah?

No it is a stray that an animal shelter found.
They asked us to take him and......how could we rufuse

Some times they make the best pets! Good luck with him..

good. let this be a lesson, stay that way. it only gets worse.

ha ha lol
i think you have spoken from experience lol
And for the rest of you My dogs name is "Asher"
The debate is over in favor of my mom and sis.
So plz tell me all the good names you know but his name will have to be "Asher"
Oh well i hope to get my own dog pretty soon and trust me he will not have a name like "Asher"

Ya you are so right all the best dogs i know are not purebreds they are strays.:D

I gave you 20 of the top hunting dog names and you choose asher....:nonono2::nonono2::wave

You need to go beg for a diffrent name:hail::hail::hail::hail: ..... Like legend, trigger, buck....etc.

My dog is named Beau :) And my future dog will be named Dizzy :P

[QUOTE=genesis27:3;3603266]Hey Gen i cant help it my mom and sis picked that name!
You can be sure i protested :s14: but oh well we still got the dog!

My buddies yellow lab is named PETA, which most of you know is short for People Eating Tasty Animals. In my opinion its the perfect name for a hunting dog. Pike

My labs names are Buck Henry and Mojo. Pike

my tree labs are
yellow female- Ellie-(MOMMA DUCK)- AKC-"MISS ELLIE'S MISCHIEF"
chocolate male- Skeet-(DADDY DUCK)JUST PLAIN OLE SKEET
black male- Goose- (BABY GOOSE)- AKC/UKC "WATERMARKS FOWL MOUTH"

I have heard another interpetation of PETA is People And The Ethical Treatment of Animals
Not my opinion this came from a non-hunter
But still a good laugh.:p
