How to choose the right nickname
Nicknames of male dogs: original Russian names
When choosing a nickname, be sure to think not only about how unusually to name the dog, but also about how to do it correctly. There are several rules to follow:
- The dog's name should not be long, 2-3 syllables are enough. In this case, it is better if it contains ringing sounds that the animal can quickly get used to. If you decide to give a long, complex name, you need to immediately think about how it will sound in an abbreviated version. And this is the sound that the dog needs to be accustomed to. Situations are different, and in a critical situation the dog will not be able to react to a long word instantly;
- No matter how original the nickname may seem, it should in no case overlap with the main teams. Otherwise, the dog will get confused, which can lead to a sad result;
- The owner must like the name. But even when choosing from a list of funny dog names, you cannot call your pet a rude, abusive, or indecent word. This will cause indignation among others, the dog will feel negative, and may become aggressive, nervous, and unfriendly.
Important! When choosing a name, you should not be guided by the current, momentary fashion and name the dog in honor of current stars. You need to understand that this animal will be next to the owner for 13-18 years, fashion and hobbies will change, and the nickname will no longer please.
