Nicknames for dogs of small breeds boys Maltese


Determining whether the dog likes the nickname

The puppy doesn’t care what meaning we put into his dog’s name or what it means for a person. The dog may like it or not. To ensure that it matches the puppy’s temperament, character, and habits, do not rush to urgently give the puppy a name.

It’s better to spend a couple of days with your pet, study its habits, think about what nickname for small breed dogs is suitable for the pet’s character traits. When the list of nicknames that you think are most suitable for the puppy has been compiled, start checking what from this list the pet will like.

Call them one by one with the same intonation, watch his reaction. Watch what interests your dog the most. Maybe he will look at you, wag his tail, or not pay attention. Using these indicators, you can understand what the puppy approves and what he doesn’t.

Too long and it will be difficult for your pet to remember.

Choosing between Russian and foreign nicknames

You and I live in Russia. We speak Russian, but for some reason many people call their pet a kind of Friedrich Wilhelm the third. There is no need to do this, if only because it will be difficult for the dog to accept such a nickname. Each language has its own characteristics that should not be forgotten.

Therefore, if we speak Russian, then it would be better for the dog to call the boy’s dog with a Russian nickname, for its own good. Russian nicknames have their own charm and reflect the warmth and vastness of the Russian soul.

Russian cool nicknames for breeds of small dogs for boys:

  • Tosha is suitable for an energetic, mischievous, merry fellow.
  • Kuzya - suitable for a cute, playful, shy person.
  • Bim - for a smart dog.
  • Filya - suitable for a friendly simpleton.
  • Count - excellent for a graceful important person.

Options for nicknames for a girl dog

When choosing a name, the owner can be guided by his own sense of humor. Unusual names are quite original, reflecting the owner’s perception of his pet, for example - Chips, Shmyga, Mouse, Chucha, Fifa, Squeaky.

Russian-language names create a real sensation in foreign countries, so if the owner plans to take the pet outside the Russian Federation, it is worth naming the dog Alice, Sonya, Mila, Asya, Kukla, Lida, Tasya.

The most popular and suitable nicknames for miniature girls dogs are:

You should not give your pet a female name if someone from your circle bears it, as this may offend the person.

We exclude nicknames that overlap with teams

Owners, having taken care that they themselves like the nickname and that even the dog suits it, often forget that they need to choose so that they do not overlap with the commands that you will teach your pet in the future.
An incorrectly chosen nickname will become a big obstacle to training.

The peculiarity of a dog’s perception is that it remembers the first 3-4 letters of its name, and if the command is consonant with it, the pet will not understand what you want from it.

These are the ones you should avoid:

  • Sid - echoes the command “sit”,
  • Funya - will interfere with teaching the “fu” command,
  • Lodge - consonant with the command “lie down”,
  • Road - the dog may confuse it with the command “near”,
  • Gesi - will become an obstacle to learning the “voice” command.

How to name a boy dog ​​correctly

As a rule, if your puppy is taken from well-born parents, then he already has a “legal nickname”

. It is complexly formed from the names of mom and dad, as well as the name of the nursery. In addition, it is customary to name puppies of the same litter starting with the same letter, for example, Tobby, Tagir, Tilda and others in the same spirit.

This is not always a convenient name and you may well choose a home option. At competitions, the “legal” name and nickname that you gave can be written with a dash.

Don't choose a nickname in advance

It would seem, why not choose a nickname before the puppy arrives in the house. Moreover, it often happens that you like some dog name from a movie, and you already dream of naming your future pet that way. It may happen that the invented name does not quite suit the puppy.

– in size, color and temperament. Soon you will feel discomfort, and delight from the chosen nickname will develop into discomfort.

For example, when dreaming of a puppy, you will want to give him the noble name Baron, but what if the dog turns out to be not of a royal character at all? A playful, nimble and mischievous puppy may not show signs of noble composure and restraint. It would be nice to call it “Fantik” or “Joy”.

Each dog has qualities that are unique to it, and even puppies from the same litter are very different. Not to mention that the nickname must correspond to the breed.

A small miracle in the house

How cute these tiny bundles of happiness are, you just want to cuddle them. And when it comes to a name, Pusya, Zhuzha, Masya, Bulya

and other diminutive names. But Pusi can grow into a big dog and then such a name will make people laugh.

But in our case we are talking about a nickname for small dogs of miniature breeds, such as Pikinese, lapdog, Yorkie, toy terrier and other “toy” dogs. They are created for love and tenderness, so these names suit them perfectly. Moreover, nicknames can be universal, like a nickname for a boy’s dog or for a girl’s dog, for example, Knopa, Mini, Fifi, etc.

Dog-child

Very often dogs are adopted as a friend or even a child. And the dog copes with these tasks better than other animals - a devoted friend and a gentle child. But you don't need to call the dog a human name

. On the site, this will create ambiguous situations, and the rules of good manners state that the dog has a dog’s name.

How to teach a puppy his name

It's done! The puppy is yours. The first period is the period of acquaintance - when you take the puppy in your arms, do not make sudden movements, do not pull or squeeze the baby. Let him feel warm and comfortable in your arms. Pet him while saying his name, and don't think that he will immediately understand that you are addressing him.

Essentially, when you train your puppy, you have already started training. And a nickname is the first, albeit small, stage of training. Her dog needs to be pronounced calmly, in a quiet voice with warm notes. Let the baby like it. It is imperative to say it during feeding and rewarding, during play and when the puppy is sad.

There is no need to shout at the puppy, saying his name, when he misbehaves or makes a puddle. Let the name bring him positive emotions, but not fear. If you do everything correctly, then within ten days the baby will get used to it and will willingly run to you at the first call.

Smart choice

So, we can first say that the name for a boy’s dog should be chosen based on several logical rules:

  • relating it to the personality of the puppy;
  • hoping that the puppy will sooner or later become a mature dog;
  • it doesn't have to be a human name (at least not one that's used in your country).

However, there are other rules based on the characteristics of dog hearing and training.

Phonetics and nickname

Did you know that dogs only hear the first two sounds? In accordance with this, it becomes obvious that the dog does not need a long nickname, because anyway it will only hear the first two syllables. There are other rules that you should familiarize yourself with:

  • Sounds
    .
    Dogs respond best to names with voiced consonants “b, v, d, d, g, z, l, m, n, r, c.”
    Names with these letters are easy to remember, in addition, the dog will be able to quickly respond to a ringing word;
  • Minimum letters
    .
    The dog responds best to a short name - one or two syllables. So, Bax, Roy, Jaco
    are simply ideal names both in length and in the presence of ringing sounds.

Nickname and training

Both small and large dogs can and should be taught basic commands. This is convenient and beneficial for the pet’s character, because you don’t want to keep an ill-mannered creature? Then you need to take into account several rules:

  • Nickname length and reaction
    .
    A long name can become a stumbling block in cases where a lightning-fast reaction is needed. While you are saying “Voldemar, ugh!”
    , your dog may already have accomplished what he planned. The same applies to Barberry, Richmond, Brunnhilde, etc.;
  • Nickname or team?
    If you want to train your pet to follow commands, then make sure that the name does not resemble the main ones. For example, Cedric or Sid or good names for boys' dogs from a phonetic point of view, but they are very similar to the command “Sit”. Still, it is better to exclude names that coincide with the command, otherwise confusion will complicate training.

All that remains is to move on to the actual selection of nicknames.

If you already have a nickname

There are often cases when a name is assigned by a dog breeder, when the litter of a certain year of a litter is named after a certain letter; such rules have been established in some kennel and breeding clubs. Or you have already bought a teenage puppy who already has a name.

There is no need to call the dog back, it is already accustomed to its name, there is no need to traumatize it, it is easier to come up with a diminutive version that is consonant with the real one or reduced in the size of the letters. For example, the bulldog Tyson was simply called Ty in his adoptive family, and Hardy-Strom, brought from England, responded to Hardy all his life.

Many breeders, mostly foreign, assign long names to their pets, which appear in their pedigrees, but only a part is heard in daily circulation. For example, multiple German champion Davis von House-Marvey is simply House, and Gled-Agat-As is simply Agat in the family.

A dog in the house is always a joy, like an ungrown child, affectionate and responsive. It adds bright colors to our lives.

Fashion for dog names

If you're wondering what it was common to name dogs in the past, different trends have prevailed at different times. In the 18th and 19th centuries there was a boom in hunting with dogs and names that reflected the characteristics of the dog were in fashion, such as Kusay, Robbery, Pugay

etc. But in the 20th century, the trend came to call dogs after the names of the Greek pantheon, for example, Hermes, Zeus, Antaeus and others.

Wartime displaced the fashion for mythological names, replacing them with more realistic ones: Faithful, Friend, Hero, Brave, as well as names given in honor of geographical objects, for example, Baikal, Amur and others. Belki and Strelki, as well as various Knops and Ryzhiks, became popular after the famous space flights with dogs.

Perestroika brought many foreign words into the Russian language, including dog names. Dogs began to be called Black, Boy, Smile, Schwartz and similar foreign words.

Speaking about modern trends in dog names, we can cite several names of dogs of famous people:

  • York Merai Carey – Ginger;
  • Will Smith's dog is Ludo;
  • Daria Dontsova’s dogs – Iriska, Kapa, ​​Mulya;
  • Madonna's Chihuahua - Chiquita.

As you can see, there is no one fashion trend, as they say “who knows what”.

Even a tiny, recently acquired puppy should receive its own proud name. It makes it easier to establish a connection with the animal, train it, and teach it to respond to commands on demand.

Description by month

The weight of a newborn puppy ranges from 70-100 grams. From birth to 14 days, puppies are blind and deaf , and their coat is smooth. They feed exclusively on their mother's milk. During this period, puppies can only crawl awkwardly.

At 2-3 weeks, their eyes open and their hearing develops. Even though their teeth have erupted, they still feed on milk. Weight is 400-500 g.

At the age of 5 weeks, the dog begins to form an attachment to its mother and its brothers. The weight of a two-month-old puppy is 800-1000 grams.


Until 8-10 weeks, the mother plays a huge role for the puppy.
She can punish him with false bites, shaking, growling and even grinning. It has already been proven that puppies that have not undergone the process of education from their mother are not disciplined. The fur begins to fluff up a little and grow back. By 3 months, a puppy’s weight increases to 1000-1400 grams, and at 4 months, lapdog puppies weigh almost 2 kg .
Most dogs find a new home at 12-15 weeks. During this period, it is necessary to recreate as much as possible the conditions in which the puppy previously lived.

By the beginning of the 5th month, the puppy weighs about 2-2.5 kg. The last month of weight gain is the 6th. During this period, the dog gains its maximum weight, which is recommended to be maintained throughout its life.

It should be noted that no matter what age the puppy is, its color will always be pure white. The dog's eyes remain round and expressive and brown throughout his life.

Options for boys

These can be the following nicknames: Bim, Bonya, Pif, Rich, Stif, Tima, Ulf, Phil, Cent, Chip, Sean, Andy, Young, Hugh.

Nicknames for Maltese

A well-chosen nickname for a Maltese dog (scientifically a “zoonym”) reflects the individual characteristics, character and temperament traits, and exterior qualities of the pet. Naming a Maltese is not an easy task.

There are many subtleties and bottlenecks in the task: conciseness, gender specificity, originality and ease of memorization, both by the dog and the owner.

These are just the superficial importance and features of choosing a name for a pet.

Document flow of Maltese dogs

In the pedigree books, the breeder registers each litter and assigns it the next letter of the alphabet. After the nickname, the origin (“factory”) is written through a hyphen. According to the template: Rocky–MorningStar, Rada–MorningStar.

Litter activation ends with the creation of litter-wide and individual passports, in which nicknames, identification codes and digital combinations of microchips are recorded.

Options for choosing a Maltese nickname

To speed up and simplify the process of choosing a Maltese nickname, you should consider some aspects:

  • All family members are required to take part in the creative process;
  • the event is serious: the nickname will have to be pronounced loudly in public places;
  • the chosen name should not be consonant with official commands;
  • the chosen nickname will reflect the individual characteristics of the owner and his feelings for the shaggy dog;
  • The nickname is assigned once, renaming is not recommended.

Haste in the selection is unacceptable: it is better to think for a couple of days, discuss and consider various options, than to endlessly and stupidly go through the name of the pet. There is no need to delay either. The sooner the Maltese acquires its own “call sign”, the faster the activities for socialization and education of the lap dog .

Choosing a name is a creative and fun activity for the whole family. of options for the names of Maltese Bichons . Take your choice responsibly: your pet's name will become a word repeated many times a day.

Creative brainstorming

The choice of a nickname for a Maltese dog is most often made subjectively, based on tastes, knowledge, and memorable stories. Sometimes fashion trends, popular books, films, and television shows become the selection criteria.

In any case, the naming process must be full of positive emotions and a powerful charge of excellent mood. The “proper name” obtained as a result of creative brainstorming will invariably bring joy and energy to both the owner and the shaggy pet.

The selection criterion may also be the exterior features of the Maltese. Link the name you choose to the characteristic virtues and features of the dog:

  • the dog’s magnificent snow-white fur;
  • miniature fragility and aristocratic article of a favorite;
  • tireless playfulness and energy of the Maltese.

come up with a nickname for the Maltese . “Cleopatra” is an excellent choice for a magnificent Maltese: slightly pretentious, but stylish and dignified. Unless in household use it turns into “Klepa”. Somehow it didn’t sound very good... Think about how the pet’s pet name will sound, it is used much more often than the full name.

What's in your name?!

The lapdog's nickname is full of secret energy swirls and mystical connections with fate. Breeders and experienced owners of Maltese dogs claim that name greatly influences the formation of the dog’s character, its behavioral reactions and habits.

Experts divide “soft” and “hard” nicknames . Nicknames with the presence of sounds [L], [M] and [N] guarantee the light, slightly absent-mindedly languid character of the Maltese. For example: Sonya, Musya, Yuna, Tommy, Nikki.

“Formidable” consonants [B], [D] and [R] will contribute to the rigidity and even aggressiveness of the Maltese: Jackie, Romulus, Margot, Gordy. The nicknames of Maltese dogs ending in “ii” (Boniface, Horace) guarantee the sedateness and impressiveness of the snow-white lap dog.

The main thing is practicality

While being original and striking with creativity, thinking painfully and for a long time about a name for a Maltese , we must not forget about primitive practicality and everyday good quality.

Yes, the nickname should correspond to the pet and reflect its entire being, but at the same time the word should be easy to pronounce and easily remembered.

No more than two syllables with a maximum presence of sibilants and sibilants: most Maltese Bichons “have a soft spot” for them.

Basic rules for choosing a nickname

An inevitable fact: the chosen name of the Maltese dog will sound in the owner’s house for many, many years.

The nickname should:

  • easy to speak out;
  • sound decent, without any insinuations, so as not to be embarrassed in society;
  • logically correlated with the gender of the pet and the characteristics of the Maltese breed.

Five “secret” rules for choosing a nickname for a Maltese :

  • Polysyllabic constructions and constructions are unacceptable: small dogs perceive no more than two syllables. And it’s incredibly difficult to operate structures like “Vitualdo the Magnificent” in everyday life.
  • Human names for dogs are bad manners. The name of a mountain or waterfall is better than the name of a close friend or relative.
  • Fun and humor are good in moderation. Laughing yourself and making others laugh is a good thing. But a little dog will have to respond to “this dissonant nickname” all his life.
  • The use of the names of former, now deceased dogs is fraught with mystical continuity.
  • Diminutive forms disorient the puppy. Abbreviations and declensions of nicknames are perceived by the dog as completely different words. It is advisable to use the dog's full name when communicating with him. This disciplines the Maltese.

The British have a great saying: “call a magnificent dog a bad name and feel free to drown it in a pond.” Mystical dog handlers interpret the name of a pet as “coded information” that affects character and destiny.

The main criterion for choosing a Maltese nickname is the Maltese itself. Look into the puppy's eyes, listen to the echo of your heart: the little Maltese will certainly tell you what its real name is.
