Tips for Naming Your Dog
Keep It Short
Dogs respond best to 1-2 syllable names. Short names are easier for your dog to recognize and for you to call out at the park. "Max" works better than "Maximilian" for recall.
Avoid Command Sounds
Names that rhyme with commands can confuse your dog. "Ray" sounds like "stay," "Bo" sounds like "no," and "Kit" sounds like "sit." Pick something distinct.
The Park Test
Imagine calling the name loudly at the dog park. If it makes you cringe, keep looking. Funny names are great at home but think about the vet's office and training class too.
Celebrate the Name
Once you've picked the perfect name, mark the occasion with a handcrafted bandana from Thread N' Wags. Every piece is one-of-a-kind and hand-sewn in Texas — just like your dog's personality. Browse our collection or check the sizing guide to find the right fit.
